I get these sudden stomach cramps and someone at home gave me an antispasmodic but im scared to take it. Im 14 weeks. Has anyone taken something like this in pregnancy ya better to just call gynac first?
Actually, antispasmodics are only to be taken if the doctor prescribes them after checking you. I read that random self-medication during pregnancy can be risky for the baby. Best to call your gynac and ask.
Oh God, I am also in my second trimester and sometimes get mild cramps, but I never take any pill without asking. Did your doctor suggest this, or are you just feeling some pain? Do others here also get these cramps?
Honestly, I'd say don't take any such medicines on your own. It is always best to let your gynac decide the dosage and whether it is even needed for your body. Safe pregnancy is the goal.
I had a similar doubt so I asked my hospital care team on their app. They told me never to take any over-the-counter painkillers or antispasmodics without consulting them first. Just give a quick call to your doctor's assistant.
Yes, we have to be super careful about what goes into our body. When I had gestational diabetes, I realized even minor things affect our system. Definitely skip the self-medication and check with your doc first.
