Holy Pollen, Batman!

This morning I woke up with a horrible allergy attack.  Normally, I would just lay in bed with a bottle of Bendryl.  However, I know I can't take Benadryl now.  I'm going to call the doctor tomorrow, but does anyone know of anything we can take so that I can get through today?  TIA!

  • I hear ya!  I have the same problem - I live in coastal NC.  I have appt on Fri w/ my OB - going to ask then, if I can make it that long. Last year I took Singulair, but I know that's a no-no.

  • You can take Benadryl. There are a few other allergy meds that are ok for pregnancy. I know claritin is one of them.

  • Benadryl is on my OB's approved list. She also told me to keep taking my prescription Allegra and Veramyst. If you're hesitant without your doc's go-ahead, you could try to leave a message with the answering service and the on-call person for the office should get back to you pretty quickly.
