Due Date Club January 2006:cold/fever in pregnancy
2005-07-28
Name: Sujatha



I have cold/fever for the past couple of days.

I live in Bangalore and my Gyn has prescribed Cetzine 10mg for 5 days and crocin for 3 days.

Are these safe. I am 15 weeks pregnant and expecting my first baby in Jan 2006. Also does cold/fever in mother affects the baby at this stage.

Thanks,
Sujatha

Hi sujatha

according to my doctor and also as per information available on site regarding safe medication paracitamol(crocin) is safe during PG.
Even i think cetzine is for allergy.
Anyways before thaking medication confirm with ur doc about effects on baby.
It wud be good if u could avoid it.
I too had very bad cough..doc gave sporidex. i twice confirmed taht its safe to take but still i did not take it.
trying to manage with vicks, and home remedies.

Hi Sujatha,

I am not a doctor. But when I was in Bangalore last year, my son's pediatrician had prescribed Cetzine (Cetirizine HCL) as an allergy medication. If you are able to alleviate the cold symptoms by other means - inhalation of plain steam or rubbing some Vicks, that might be better.

I don't know the chemical name of crocin. Here in the US my OB/GYN says it is okay to consume any medicine with acetaminophen.

Get well soon!

Have any of you pierced your baby´ s ears?
Have any of you pierced your baby' s ears? Where did you get it done? Were you able to change the earrings after the piercing and put on indian ear rings? My pediatrician does not do it, and she suggested that i take tanvi to the mall. Pls share your experiences at the mall if you' ve had any.

Ear piercing
My daughter was 5 months old when we decided to get her ear pierced. The non medical ear piercing options are painful and unsafe with possibilities of hepatitis, viruses and even HIV and I can never recommend it. My husband and I were looking for a safe, modern, gun shot piercing option which is completely safe, pain-free and with a traditional touch as well.
