Just got a phone call from GP asking if I was still taking Omeprazole to which I replied yes. She tells me that most women stop and take Gaviscon (doesn't really do much for me) even though Omeprazole is proven safe in pregnancy (she checked!!). Thing is I was advised the same thing with Eeva..... Best not to take anything when pregnant. So I stopped..... Then about 5-6 weeks later I was really ill and in pain..... Badly!! I book an emergency appointment and pretty much got told off by the doctor for stopping the Omeprazole with my history.... Told him the GP told me to and is answer was:
"I don't see why she did that as it is safe in pregnancy" so started it again with some doubt.... I asked when it all went wrong if the Omeprazole could have caused any problems and the answer was a resounding no!!!
The GP today said it was up to me and should check with docs at miscarriage clinic but really she didn't know what to suggest apart from it is best to take little as possible when pregnant and I'm already taking thyroxin and aspirine!!!
So know I don't know whether to stop or take it or what to do...... I don't want to hurt baby and if that means some pain and discomfort to me so he it it'll be worth it in the end!!! But if I can take it..... Without hurting baby then why cause more discomfort to myself, pregnancy is a mind field of symptoms already. But don't know what to do for best!!!!
