Why did you have to stop your shots for pregnancy? They are safe for

pregnancy and nursing. He is giving me a prescription for a nasal spray

antihistamine -- it is not one I have ever heard of before -- but it doesn't

enter your system like Claritin and the others. He said it is what he gives

to patients that are pregnant, nursing or planning on becoming pregnant.

No, it is hard to read his writing but it looks like Astelin.

I had to stop my shots for this pregnancy because I missed 2mos b4 I

got pg and since I am highly sensitive he did not want to risk me

having a reaction to the shots and needing antireaction meds that are

not good for pregnancy. So I can start again ASAP after the baby is

born. I have taken Claritin through my last two pregnancies, and my

alergist and obgyn both told me that it was ok to take while bf.

Although when I am getting my shots I don't need it often, maybe 1-2

times a month. I am SO alergic to everything, that the nasel spays

never worked. I figured nursing would be thae best choice to maybe

help the baby not to have the alergy problems I do, since he will be

getting the antibodies the shots create right along with me.

These shots are working great! I haven't needed any meds yet but when we

visit people I usually need something. If I am at anyone's home for any

length of time, I come home sick so some medicine will be nice. On my recent

test I found out I am NOT allergic to 3 things. I know before I switched

doctors that whatever I was reacting to DS was too but now that I have

started on the new shots, both of us have cleared up. Hopefully, DS can get

it all by way of me/breastmilk so he doesn't have to take his own shots.
