what would you take?

I know your supposed to take tylonol first, and motrin 2nd, but I have such a food headache (could be caffine withdrawl too...) I went to cheesecake factory for lunch and ate way too much and now I have a headache.  But all I have is extra strengh tylonol and motrin 800mg.  I went to the store and they are remodeling and only had extra strengh and I refuse to run all over town for asprin

Re: what would you take?

  • I thought you weren't supposed to take Ibuprofen wasn't okay during pregnancy. 

    ETA: Do you like the sentence above?  Apparently pregnancy has made me forget how to type coherent sentences.

    This is what it should have said  "I thought you weren't supposed to take Ibuprofen during pregnancy"

  • OMG girl the only only only thing you are supposed to take when you're pregnant is Tylenol! Extra strength is ok, and so is PM. Definitely not motrin or asprin though!

  • No Ibuprofen! Just extra strength Tylenol.

    I have had killer caffeine withdrawals so I took a nap today to get through it. Closing my eyes usually helps.

  • I've read not to take any kind of NASID, anything like motrin or aleve or advil.  That's what is in my handbook of things I can take from my ob's office.  They can cause m/c in early pregnancy.  Tylenol is the only safe pain reliever listed...and that's from my ob's office.

    Hope you feel better! 

  • No Motrin/ibuprofen! No aspirin!

    Tylenol and caffeine are your only options, besides a quiet place and sleep.

    This, and if you can't sleep, maybe a warm (ish) shower.  Sorry you have a headache, hope you feel better soon!

  • One of the reasons Not to take Motrin or Aspririn is because the increase the risk of bleeding.  Aspirin "thins your blood".



  • really?? I googled it and like 3 websites say no motrin in the 3rd trimester...I took tylenol extra strength and feel woah better!!! Thanks Ladies!!!

  • You should really just take Tylenol Regular Strength. That's what docters recommend and say is safe to take.
