Could Diet Pills hout Me and my baby?
Question:
Answer:
being in a diet is bad for the baby in the first place...so i would really suggest for you to stop taking those pills!
Yes, you should definitely stop taking them until you know for sure that you are not pregnant. I wouldn't worry too much about the pills you took before you knew, as they are not likely to do any damage, but discuss it with your doctor just the same. And congrats if you are pregnant and welcome to my world LOL!
OFCOARSE .. STOP WIHILE YOUR AHEAD JUST IN CASE .. DONT WANN HURT YOURSELF OR BABY .. DIETPILLS ARE JUST AS MUCH OF A DRUG ..
yes u could harm ur baby if ur dieting
YES! Diet pills have stimulants that can harm your child, and yourself. Diet pills are never a good thing to take, whether pregnant or not. You should get off the diet pills immediately. Your pills might not say they have ephedrine or caffiene, but a lot of the natural ingredients they put in are herbs that have caffiene or ephedrine (or drugs like that) in them.
What you take into your body, your unborn child takes into his/her body. Does your fetus need a diet? Rhetorical question of course, but I hope it helps illustrate the need to be careful about what you put into your body during your pregnancy. If you need to diet I would suggest doing it the old fashioned way, exercise, healthy eating, self control, etc.. Your baby will thank you hopefully by being born happy and healthy. It may be difficult to take weight loss matters into your own hands as opposed to using a pharmaceutical aid, but it would be far more difficult to deal with the harm that you can potentially do to your newest addition to the world. Good luck!
You should not take diet pills if you are pregnant. I would not take any more unless you find out that you are not pregnant. I would not worry though that you have already hurt the baby, I was on the pill when I got pregnant and did not know for 3 1/2 weeks I took the pill every day that whole time and my son came out just fine! The problem with dieting while pregnant is that you would have a growing baby on a diet also and then he/she would not grow well and if you kept taking them there could be birth defects.
Diet pills are certainly harmful to your child. Stop taking them immediately. Contact your doctor if you don't believe it. He should also tell you that diet pills can be harmful to you whether you are pregnant or not.
One big thing... and I mean BIG is that you should start taking Folate. I am in medical school and this is must have knowledge for those looking to conceive or have already. It will drastically decrease the chance of birth defects in your child.
1) Go to a doctor... you are pregnant! you need to start receiving care.
2) ask about your diet pills
3) ask about FOLATE
Quit taking them. You don't need to diet if you are preg. Stay healthy...but no dieting.
yes, I think its obvious you have to stop it, unless u want harm for the baby
I suggest that you stop taking then until you find out for sure. It is best to be safe than sorry.
