Here is a practical guide to help every pregnant women decide whether to take common drugs and everyday stimulants (such as alcohol and caffeine), or painkillers in labour - and to live with her decision. A vitamin pill, an aspirin, a glass of wine, a cigarette with morning coffee or a GP's prescription all take on new meaning when a woman is pregnant or trying to conceive. And when she is in labour, she has to consider how the pain relief she might need will affect her baby. Drawing on up-to-date reseach and women's real experiences and dilemmas, this book explores the risks and benefits of prescribed, over-the-counter and recreational drugs, stimulants and homoeopathic remedies. It cuts through confusion and controversy to show which drugs, on balance, do more good than harm before conception, during pregnancy and in labour; what the consequences might be of taking or refusing a particular drug; and whether a drug might benefit the baby.
