Omeprazole

[kidsareok]

Hey! I've been prescribed Omeprazole for awful acid reflux after trying many different remedies that didn't work. I have takes 1 weeks worth of tablets and I do feel better - but I can't help but worry every time I take a tablet in the morning that I'm harming my baby? Has anyone else taken Omeprazole through pregnancy? Was everything fine? My GP seems to think it's fine but just wondering if there's anyone else out there with any info! Thanks

Thank you @princessonabudget ! My GP did say many pregnant women take it - it's just staring at the bright yellow pills 💊 each morning makes me feel guilty 😂. I'll be a FTM so I guess this is the start of mum guilt!! Glad to hear everything is well and you have a lively 2 year old!! 😊

I've been taking them through my pregnancy though they've not helped :( Have downed a bottle of Gaviscon in a week!

I took them for the last 16 weeks of my pregnancy. Game changer,I was totally ill with Acid reflux and heartburn before it. They are fine to take, like you I didn't want to take anything in pregnancy. The GP told me I was probably doing more harm being sick constantly and being unable to eat anything than the tablets would!

I have them and have had for previous pregnancies. I find one tablet every other day does the job for some reason, I don’t know if this would make you worry less or if it would even work for you?
