Getting bad body aches and sometimes headache in this 3rd month. Im scared to take anything on my own. Just want to know what's generally considered safe so i can ask my doc properly. anyone been through this?
Whenever I get a headache, I just have a nice warm cup of ginger tea and some snacks, which usually helps. But if the pain is too much, I never take any medicine without asking my gynac first. Self-medicating is a big no-no right now.
With back-to-back meetings and pregnancy fatigue, headaches are bound to happen. Generally, doctors say paracetamol is safe, but honestly, always drop a quick text to your doctor before popping any pill. Don't risk it just to save time.
Beta, dawayi lene se bacho jitna ho sake. Thoda sa sar dard ho toh baam laga lo ya thandi patti rakh lo sar pe. Agar dard bilkul sahi na ho, toh doctor se pooch kar hi koi goli khana.
I felt terrible body aches during my first trimester and was so tempted to take my regular painkiller. But my gynac told me only specific medicines like paracetamol are safe in limited doses. Please call your doc before taking anything.
In our house, my mother-in-law suggests inhaling eucalyptus oil steam for headaches, which works great. But for actual pain tablets, we strictly follow only what our family doctor advises. Never take OTC pain relievers on your own.
My biggest pain reliever was letting my husband do a nice foot massage, haha! But seriously, don't take random pain killers like ibuprofen or aspirin as they can be risky. Only take what your doctor prescribes.
