Paracetamol in pregnancy
Has anyone else heard of the new study which links paracetamol to ASD and ADHD in children? According to this new study, pregnant women who are taking paracetamol are putting their unborn baby at risk of ASD, ADHD, asthma, low IQ and possibly learning difficulties too.
I suffer from migraines, always have done, but they’re now worse during pregnancy. Paracetamol doesn’t do much, but prevents headaches turning into full blown migraines that renders me useless. So now, I don’t really want to take paracetamol, despite the NHS saying it’s fine.
What are everyone’s thoughts and feelings on this? Anyone with any experiences?
