I've been under Motrin medicatio ( 600 mg three times a day) for four days. After two weeks I found out that I was pregnant. What are the risks for the fetus?

Did everything turn out ok? I just found out I am pregnant and had also taken Motrin just prior.

Leah, the doctors that I go to (there are 4 in one practice) actually tell patients that motrin is acceptable to take for headaches/pain until 28 weeks. They warn not to take it beyond the suggested amount and certainly not after 28 weeks but say that prior to that they've not seen problems. I don't know about other areas, but thought you'd want to know what our doc said!

If you are unsure about the dose your doctor said was okay, or want a second opinion, I would say to call TTIS. My sister called them a ton during her pregnancy. the number is 1-800-733-4727.
