Agreed.
Unless it's very early in the cycle (before O) and it's a desperate situation. I did take two advil first week of my cycle to finally kick a three day headache. Tylenol just wasn't doing anything to help.
When in doubt ask your doc.
I try really hard not to take any meds during my 2WW. While waiting to O, I will take whatever I need. Tyelenol is safe for pregnancy,so if you are doubtful, I'd stick with acetaminophen.
ETA: "Preggo" is not a popular term around here.
Well, don't take Ibuprofen before O because it can actually delay it.
If I take ibuprofen, I don't take it after O because it can mess with implantation. Since I am charting, I know when I O, and ibuprofen hasn't seemed to affect it at all. There have been cycles with it and cycles without it and I always seem to O around the same time. However, I just learned a few months ago that it can affect implantation, so after reading that info, I've sworn it off in the 2ww.
