My husband had pink eye too, but they gave us different eye drops. It cleared up pink eye and baby is fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pink-eye-during-pregnancy#post-2485445 Sun, 06 Mar 2016 00:19:48 +0000 blackbird 2485445@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had it last year.

The drops were a category C but I only used 2 drops otherwise definitely would've gotten the other drops that are a Category. B and safer for pregnant women. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pink-eye-during-pregnancy#post-2485207 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 14:48:08 +0000 ksnow 2485207@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I"m 38 weeks too and had pink eye like 2 weeks ago. My daughter had it and had the antibiotic drops and then I had a cold...and started getting the goopy eye as well. I went to see DR and they gave me antibiotic drops, even though they were on the "C" list of medication meaning could be dangerous, weigh benefits/risks...I wasn't sure I wanted to take them so I just got some lubricating eye drops, did lots of washing, no eye make up etc....and luckily it cleared up on it's own. I asked if there was any eye drops they could give that were not "C" list and the DR said no...but I read that's not true online. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pink-eye-during-pregnancy#post-2485202 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 14:44:42 +0000 winter_wonder 2485202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone else get pink eye while pregnant? Did you have eye drops and an antibiotic? I'm 38 weeks and think I have possible pink eye. Goopy, watery left eye :bummed: </p> <p>I'm also fighting a cold at the moment so I thought the watery eye might be from that, but my eye does look a bit irritated and red...</p> <p>I see a trip to urgent care in my future! </p>
