I had beer like 6 hours before I got my BFP, and I'm not worried about that at all. Yet I worried about one antacid tablet. Weird brain. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/accidentally-took-prilosec-without-thinking#post-316619 Sat, 29 Sep 2012 07:02:49 +0000 blackbird 316619@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did a lot of stuff before i knew i was pregnant, oops! i wouldn't worry too much about it, but i'd move the prilosec to another cabinet. I did that once i knew i got pregnant, so i didn't accidentally take advil. it's just habit sometimes!</p> <p>PS i totally had a bunch of gin at a wedding before i knew. Oh well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/accidentally-took-prilosec-without-thinking#post-316474 Fri, 28 Sep 2012 23:15:04 +0000 ladyfingers 316474@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Prilosec wasn't on my doctor's list of approved meds but then he surprised me by telling me I could take it if nothing else worked for heartburn -- and he's a very, very cautious doctor! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/accidentally-took-prilosec-without-thinking#post-316400 Fri, 28 Sep 2012 21:55:05 +0000 LazyLightning 316400@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: that's true... I actually thought of that ... "We'll it's not like I drank a bunch of Martinis and people do that!!" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/accidentally-took-prilosec-without-thinking#post-316287 Fri, 28 Sep 2012 20:31:26 +0000 MamaMoose 316287@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@nodakiddo: haha I do things like that too. I like to say the baby ate my brain : ) I also wanted to add that LOTS of people don't even know they are pregnant at 5 weeks and are doing all kinds of non pregnancy friendly things. My good friend got wasted one night and later found out she was about 6 weeks pregnant at the time (she got preg her first cycle off BC and thought her cycle was just taking a long time to come back). She now has a perfect 2month old. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/accidentally-took-prilosec-without-thinking#post-316255 Fri, 28 Sep 2012 20:08:48 +0000 LazyLightning 316255@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: I actually didn't need it!! I was getting it for my husband and just randomly took it with my prenatal a without thinking, instead if handing it to him!! Doh!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/accidentally-took-prilosec-without-thinking#post-316228 Fri, 28 Sep 2012 19:48:56 +0000 prettylizy 316228@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Agreed, I wouldn't worry, but if you can sleep over it, call a health nurse to be sure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/accidentally-took-prilosec-without-thinking#post-316225 Fri, 28 Sep 2012 19:46:41 +0000 autumnlove 316225@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wouldn't worry about it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/accidentally-took-prilosec-without-thinking#post-316208 Fri, 28 Sep 2012 19:38:22 +0000 mamabolt 316208@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took Prilosec regularly during pregnancy at the advice of my midwife (I had terrible reflux!) I think you'll be ok! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/accidentally-took-prilosec-without-thinking#post-316191 Fri, 28 Sep 2012 19:22:39 +0000 MamaMoose 316191@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree that one dose is very unlikely to cause an issue. But just call your doc and let her know for piece of mind. Also, if you have heartburn take tums... They are fine in pregnancy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/accidentally-took-prilosec-without-thinking#post-316181 Fri, 28 Sep 2012 19:07:14 +0000 winniebee 316181@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm sure 1 dose is ok..just call your OB so she can tell you that ; ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/accidentally-took-prilosec-without-thinking#post-316177 Fri, 28 Sep 2012 19:05:06 +0000 pinkcupcake 316177@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmm, I'd call your OB or consulting nurse line to ask? You could also try calling Poison Control and asking them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/accidentally-took-prilosec-without-thinking#post-316175 Fri, 28 Sep 2012 19:04:57 +0000 MsMini 316175@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wouldn't worry too much about taking it once. You could call your OB and ask just to get some re-assurance. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/accidentally-took-prilosec-without-thinking#post-316174 Fri, 28 Sep 2012 19:01:39 +0000 chopsuey 316174@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not sure..! Would call your OB and ask? I'm thinking 1 pill isn't going to hurt. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/accidentally-took-prilosec-without-thinking#post-316172 Fri, 28 Sep 2012 19:00:09 +0000 LazyLightning 316172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Crap! The Internet says this is a category C drug... Think I'm ok? I'm 5 weeks... A bit worried. Just wasn't thinking when I took it!!! </p>
