Have a hand op today and told I can take paracetamol? 21 weeks.

Probably worrying too much as a GA is fairly major !!!

Just unsure about pain killers ?

Congratulations x Paracetamol is fine and if you find this isn’t helping the doc might be able to give you something stronger but don’t take over the counter pain killers like ibrophine isn’t good for the baby so don’t take that x but paracetamol is fine x I’ve been given a low dose of cocodamol the lowest you can get after suffering real bad with spd I’m 32 weeks pregnant x
