prednisone in first trimester

Theoretically Prednisone can cause cleft lip if used in first trimester (Your wife has already crossed that stage). Also steroids are given in preterm labour at 32 weeks to bring about lung maturity of the fetus...i think using it is safe after 16 wks. hope your dr knows about your wife's pregnancy.

First time at 9 weeks for dehydration with dizzy spells and hot flashes. Which my first trimester was not fun in the least. I took a second trip to the ER yesterday because i was having chest pressure and shortness of breath issues. They gave me prednisone which I've already read up on so i don't want any advice cause my asthma is so severe i have to use both my albuterol and the prednisone to breathe normal.

I take it due to lupus. I have to take it. The side effects are only in the first trimester and my high Risk doctor said it's very rare. The pros out weigh the cons if you absolutely need it.

I had to take prednisone the entire first trimester of this pg so my body wouldn't reject the pregnancy. Hope you get some relief.

I think changing my diet to mainly fruits and veggies helped a little in the first trimester. Im back to a normal healthy diet with some Halloween candy included. Thankfully I'm feeling a lot more energy at 22 weeks now just horrible heartburn. It's funny how feeling the baby kick makes me forget about how unbelievably tired I was.

So my question is, has anyone experienced cramping in their first trimester? If so, how mild/severe was it for you? I read this is normal due to stretching & expanding of the uterus, but does anyone else feel like you could get your period any minute? It's not THAT extreme but I do have mild cramping on and off. Anyone else experience this?

I got sick in my first trimester also. My Dr. told me tht I can take any meds in the first trimester AT ALL. She did recommend Sucrets which is a cough drop with little to no meds tht is safe for the baby in this stage. Other thN tht I really had to stick it out ....FEEL BETTER!!!!

My LO Is 4 months and I cramped a lot in the first trimester. Very normal. Your body is changing, your uterus is stretching and moving. :) Congrats!

I had a nasty flu over the weekend. Sore throat, fever for about 18 hours and vomiting all night. I tried to keep the fever down with tylenol, but it really didn't do much for me. I didn't have a thermometer but when my fever broke I was sweating profusely so I'm worried that maybe it was pretty high. I know it's not good to have a fever in the first trimester and now I'm a little nervous. Has anyone else been sick like this in the first trimester?

Carbamezol has been given to a patient in the first trimester in pregnancy.can the pregnancy continue? she has conceived after ART.

definately agree with blugenie,about wearing a pad.another way of using them,is first thing in morning get up have pee.put one in and go back to bed for little while.then at night put one in before bed.that way they can dissolve better inside you,rather than getting up.walking round soon as you have used them.its very normal to have cramping etc in early pregnancy and throughout.good luck to you.

Anyone do acupuncture through their first trimester? The provider that I see specializes in fertility and was referred to my by my RE when I was going through IVF. Now I am wondering if I should keep going. Thanks ladies!

It depends with my first they were bad wit this one in the first trimester I didn't feel any.

OK so I'm in my first trimester and I'm having period like bleeding with clots and all i went to the doctors and had her check it out and she said it could be early signs of a miscarriage BUT she did a ultrasound and the yolk sac is still in place and my cervix is normal this bleeding only happens after sex this morning I didn't even have sex I just kinda got turned on and the bleeding started.
