Im 14 weeks and been having loose motions since morning, feeling so weak yaar. We have imodium at home but I dont want to take anything random without knowing. Anyone took this during pregnancy?
Honestly, pregnancy is a very delicate time and we shouldn't take any risks with medicines. Even common pills like Imodium need a gynac's green light first. Please call your doctor and ask, safety is most important.
Stomach upset can make u feel so weak, beta. When I was pregnant at my parents' place, my mother used to give me fresh buttermilk with a little cumin powder which really helped. For medicines like Imodium, please ask your doctor first before taking it. Take care of yourself.
God will keep you and the baby safe, don't worry too much. Keep chanting a small prayer and stay calm. Avoid taking medicines like Imodium directly, ask your doctor first and have some light khichdi today.
Oh dear, I totally understand how stressful it is when u get stomach upset and keep worrying if any medicine will harm the baby. I used to panic over every little pill during my time. Please don't take Imodium or any other OTC pill without checking with your doctor first, it's just not worth the stress. Drink lots of coconut water instead to stay hydrated.
Straight up, don't self-medicate with Imodium during pregnancy. I have two kids and my gynac was very strict about OTC meds for diarrhea. Stick to simple boiled water, white rice, and call your doctor's clinic for a safe prescription.
I wouldn't take Imodium on my own at all. When I was at Cloudnine, my doctor specifically told me to message their emergency WhatsApp coordinator before taking any over-the-counter medicine. Just drop your hospital staff a quick text, they will tell u exactly what is safe for your body.
