My allergies are acting up badly and im sneezing all day. Scared to take my usual tablet without checking now. Planning to ask my gynac but wanted to hear what others were told.
When I had a bad cold and sneezing fits, I was worried it would affect my plans for a normal delivery. My doctor reassuringly told me that standard allergy medicines like cetirizine are perfectly safe in pregnancy. Just get the okay from your doctor and you'll be fine!
Since I had several complications during my pregnancy, I became extremely careful with any pills. My doctor told me that some antihistamines like cetirizine are safe, but you must never self-medicate. Please consult your gynac before taking any allergy medicine.
Oh god, I had terrible dust allergies and was so scared that sneezing would hurt the baby! My doc told me that certain antihistamines are safe, but I still overthought it and called her twice to confirm. Please ask your doctor for the exact name so you don't have to stress like I did.
Allergies are the worst, especially when a blocked nose stops you from enjoying the smell of fresh biryani! My doctor told me some antihistamines are completely safe to take, but definitely ask your own gynac before popping any pills so you can get back to eating happily.
Allergies can be so miserable, especially when you are pregnant, but please don't worry. There are definitely safe antihistamines available, but you must let your doctor prescribe them. Don't take any random tablets from the cabinet, okay?
Please do not take any over-the-counter allergy medicine on your own during pregnancy. Even if someone says a particular antihistamine is safe, only your gynac can prescribe the right salt and dose according to your trimester. Always call your doctor first for safety!
I am in my 20th week now and dealing with terrible seasonal allergies right now, it's so frustrating! My doctor told me that cetirizine is safe, but I am still a bit hesitant to take it. Has anyone else also taken allergy meds in their second trimester?
