Trying to Get Pregnant

what meds do you take during 2WW if sick?

I've had the worst chest cold since saturday evening.  Of course I'm hoping I'm KU (8dpo right now) and don't want to take anything that would really interfere with implantation, etc. 

Anyway, I've googled etc. and have taken tylenol, mucinex, and even tried benadryl (still feel like crap!) Curious what you all take (or don't take) during your 2ww. 

Not looking for anyone to tell me to call my doc, I'm not dying or anything, just sick, bored, and curious.  

 

 

Re: what meds do you take during 2WW if sick?

  • My OB said you can pretty much take anything until you get a pos pregnancy test.


    TTC Journey:
    Me: Dx stage I endometriosis DH: minimal MFI - 3% morph
    IUI #1 - cycle converted to IVF #1 due overproduction of follies.
    BFP - m/c :(
    IVF #2 (finally) - Lupron + FSH + Ovidrel + Crinone = 10 eggs retrieved, Two grade A embryos transferred, 3 frosties!
    BFP - Beta #1 39.4 Beta #2 22 = c/p :(
    FET #1

  • I have a bad cold right now and am taking Robitussin and Nyquil.  I have AF this week, but even if it was my O time, I would still be taking these.

  • The only thing I know of that's safe is Tylenol Cold.  My doctor said to take meds that are safe even if you're trying.

  • I'm only taking meds that are safe for 1st tri right now.  I don't want to risk delaying O (Advil/ibuprofen is known to cause issues) or anything during the 2WW.  I take: Tylenol, Sudafed (only the psedoephedrine type) or Benadryl (the regular stuff).  HTH

  • I ride it out n take nothing, but thats just me
  • I normally don't take anything, but if I need to, only aspirin free.  That said, I have been battling a nasty sinus infection and have been on a steady stream of Percogesic for migraines/headaches, Afrin, which I have been taking for far too long, and recently phenylephrine (the fake pseudophedrine) and lots of Theraflu.
