Pregnancy question...wwyd?

TriciaChick

I have a horrible cold and called my doc to see what is safe to take while preg.  They told me Sudafed so I went and got that and took it 2 times.  I just reilized its sudafed PE.  I looked it up online and of course find out that you should not take it and its a "class C drug."  Google says it can constrict blood flow/oxygen to the baby/placenta.  Am I overreacting?  Should I call my doctor?

Call your doctor just to your mind at ease - he will surely tell you that db will be fine!

I was advised not to take ANY Sudafed products during the first 2 trimesters.  They just don't have enough info on it for pregnant women.
