Would you take meds in the 2ww....**UPDATED**
that clearly say not to take while PG or BF?
UPDATE -
I held off on taking the meds until I googled them. Glad I did. Turns out that it is a class E drug that can cause difficulty conceiving, and/or damage to an unborn fetus including severe muscular and skeletal deformations. The 3 websites I looked at all said not to take while TTC.
ETA - Ladies do your research. Just because you do not share a bloodstream with baby until 5 weeks, doesn't mean that a med can't have other effects on your body

Absolutely not. Maybe call your doctor and ask for something safer?

Nope, I wouldn't. I would feel bad and be worried if I took the meds then got a BFP.

during the 2WW - sure. I never changed a thing during the 2WW.
There is no blood shared between the mother and baby at this point.

Yes, unless it was a Class X that took time to get out of your bloodstream. You always have 6 weeks after conception before you have to worry.

No. I pretty much act as if I am pregnant in the 2WW just in case.

agreed. there is no chance that it would affect the baby many, many women take OTC drugs, prescription drugs, alcohol (sometimes illegal drugs ) smoke etc before they know they are pregnant. you are safe! no blood crossing until 5-6 weeks!
