Pregnant and having cold/flu, what do you take?
I'm not sure if I'm pregnant or not, but it might be possible. I've been with a horrible cold, chills, fever, joints pain, sore throat, the lymph node of my throat (left side) is vey inflamed and I can hardly eat or pass water. I went to the doctor and the doc just say "it's a viral infection, take tylenol and it will be fine in 3 days". I'm just concern because I know tylenol cannot be taken when pregnant or possible pregnant. Do you have any suggestions?

I think the only thing you can take is Tylenol...

Actually Tylenol is the safe thing to take when you are pregnent- just call an OB and they will let you know what is safe. When I was pregnant I would take Tylenol cold. Everyone I know was allowed tylenol during prenancy.

tylenol is all you can take for pain when pregnant, whoever told you that is wrong. get a test if your pregnant call an obgyn and ask them if not take whatever you wouldnormally

You can take Tylenol or Extra Strength Tylenol for pain -- that's all. You can take Sudafed for a stuffy nose.
