my stomach has been off for couple of days and i used to take enterogermina before for this. but now im 14 weeks and scared to take anything without checking. planning to ask my gynac but wanted to know if anyone used it during pregnancy?
I got terrible diarrhea in my second month and was so scared of dehydration, but I was also terrified of taking any medicine. I refused to take anything until my doctor explicitly wrote it down on my prescription. Please don't self-medicate!
Since it's basically a probiotic, it is generally considered safe to restore gut health. My pregnancy tracker app also listed probiotics as safe, but you should still double-check with your doctor before taking it.
Beta, for stomach upset, try drinking fresh buttermilk with roasted cumin or eating curd-rice first as these are natural probiotics. If you must take any medicine like Enterogermina, always ask your doctor first.
It's just good bacteria for your tummy, so it's usually safe! But always a good idea to send a quick WhatsApp text to your gynac before popping any medicine during these nine months. Stay happy and take care! 🌸
