Avatar f tn m allergic to acetmenaphin(tylenol) which is supposedly the only thing I can take while pregnant. My doctor refuses to write me prescriptions for anything else and tells me to deal with it and there's nothing else like aspirin that I can take. She's very rude. My sister had a baby about a year ago, she's allergic to tylenol as well and her doctor told her other medicines she can take that wouldn't be harmful to the child. She can't remember what they are tho.
262365 tn?1268508268 d like to add that I have lost two pounds between my 2 wk appointment because also for the past three weeks I have been suffering with acid flux/heartburn very badly. So bad til it makes me skip meals to avoid the heartburn. I also noticed that I wake up feeling nasally; I have to blow my nose (trying to clear my throat), it feels like the back of my throat is filled with mucus. I have not had a cold or virus or any so throat.

6712392 tn?1393708678 I had heartburn pretty much everyday from 15 weeks on until 39 weeks when I had my second son and he did not have very much hair it was maybe like 1/2 an inch long but thats it
9771234 tn?1405793808 My one year old nephew won't come to me anymore sine I got pregnant he does not like me. Does that mean I'm having a girl?
Avatar f tn So people say if a new born boy likes you while you are pregnant then its a girl and when you hold and girl and she cries its a boy.....???? Or is it vise versa....... because my one month old nephew wont let me put him down but my 3 months old girl cousin lets me hold her fine also so what are some other myths to determine the gender?
Avatar f tn So I had my baby on the 19th dec and had sex with my partner for the first time a couple days ago I just wanted to know is it true that your more fertile after having a baby and is it possible to get pregnant 4 weeks after having a baby we didn't use protection and I'm kinda worried now
Avatar f tn Is it safe to take tums while pregnant? I have acid reflux now and it's scary it tastes horrible and I don't like waking up choking in the middle of the night. I get it even after 2-3 hours of eating.
1628553 tn?1319162510 before I even found out I was pregnant, I been having lower back pains, they aren't sharp but they are there and worries me. I been having them for about 2weeks or more. I am 6weeks right now. they feel like when I would have my period. sometimes I get cramps in my lower abdomen. ppl tell me it's probably my body getting ready for the baby. this is my second pregnancy but the first had no symptoms just fatigue and heartburn.
Avatar f tn Heartburn means baby will have hair, suffered horrendously with my first and she was bald for the 1st year of her life. I'm suffering loads with this one too, so shall see if the myth plays any truth this time, I doubt it tho.
7062464 tn?1395341888 I've heard a glass of wine is okay once in a while. That's what my friends doctor told her anyway. She drank a glass here and there and her daughter is just fine. However, I've chosen to not drink.at all. You may want to seek your doctors guidance if you're thinking of having a drink.
Avatar f tn I crave hot chetto fries with salt and a pickle and onion rings that give me heartburn from hell but its so good I can't resist lol.
Avatar f tn You have more blood volume while pregnant so your heart has to work harder. If the chest pains have you in tears I would call your doctor and let them know. Sometimes heartburn will mimic chest pain also, it could be a lot of things.
Avatar f tn MI'm about 9 weeks pregnant however I went to the E.R. the other day because I had back pains as well as crampping so they performed a quick sonogram and I saw my little tadpoles heartbeat and the told me I look farther along than 8 1/2 weeks. All I wantto eat is banana pudding, strawberries, naked drinks, cheese doodles, strawberry milk, spinach and pancakes as well as vanilla ice cream with bananas. Those are my cravings and the only things that does not make me nauseous.
Avatar f tn Ok so even before pregnancy I have had issues with insomnia. It has gotten really bad since being pregnant to where its effecting my work and daily obligations. My doctor gave me a sample of ambiem from one of there reps about a week ago it only has 2 pills but I have been very hesitant to try it.
Avatar f tn ve done several of the old wives tales/myths to see..I got boy on all the myths. Has any body done these and saw that it worked or was there something different you did to get an early peek at the baby's gender.. thanks!
