  • i took it when i didnt know when i was pregnant and now 4 months along and everything still going good.

  • Ibprofen is definantly something you shouldn’t be taking when pregnant. But it won’t cause a miscarriage, i would suggest you stop taking it now though. Ibuprofen and advil cause you blood to thin.
    here is the list my doctor gave me of safe meds to take during pregnancy.
    -Tylenol Reg + ES
    -Sudafed
    -Benadryl
    -Gravol
    -Halls
    -Imodium
    -Imodium AD

  • Ibuprofen can cause bleeding, but it is unlikely to cause a miscarriage if you take the recommended dosage and not more. The danger with this medication and pregnancy occurs in the third trimester, because taking any NSAID, like ibuprofen or aspirin in the third trimester, can cause circulatory problems in the unborn baby. There are holes in the fetal heart that close shortly after birth, but taking these medications can cause the holes to close prematurely in the womb and can severely hurt the baby. This is not a problem in the first trimester, so you will be ok, but I would stop taking them now. Stick to tylenol for pain.
