Having body pain and slight fever since morning, 6 weeks pregnant. Saas told me to take paracetamol but im scared to take anything without asking. Planning to call my gynac but wanted to know what others did, is it okay?
I always ask my hospital doctor before buying any medicine. Even for normal fever, we should not self-medicate because hospital visits and extra tests can get very costly if complications happen. Better to call your clinic and confirm first.
Listen, my doctor had allowed paracetamol when I had a bad headache in my third trimester. But please don't take it on your own. Just shoot a quick WhatsApp to your gynac and ask, they will tell you the exact safe dose.
Don't worry, but please check with your gynac before taking any medication. Every pregnancy is different, so we should never take medicines based on online advice. Just give your doctor's clinic a quick call, they will guide you safely.
God is there to protect you and baby, keep your mind peaceful. But for medicine like paracetamol, only trust what your doctor advises. Take care of yourself, drink warm water, and pray for your good health.
Paracetamol is generally considered safe but only when your doctor prescribes it. I had a normal delivery last year and my gynac strictly told me not to take any OTC pills without asking her first. Be safe and ask your doc.
Beta, don't rush to take pills for small aches or mild fever. Try resting in a dark room or put a cool wet cloth on your forehead first. If it's still not going, then ask your doctor if paracetamol is okay for you.
