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 bodyChat Icon

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 Chat Icon many, many women take OTC drugs, prescription drugs, alcohol (sometimes illegal drugs Chat Icon ) smoke etc before they know they are pregnant. you are safe! no blood crossing until 5-6 weeks!
