TWW & Illness

[JenStar1976]

I'm on about 8dpo and have had a really bad throat infection, followed by horrendous cold & chesty cough. I've had it for about 2 weeks now and just can't shift it. I was starting to feel better as I approached my predicted fertile window so we did BD, but since then I've still felt awful. The upshot of all this is that I've had to cave in and take all sorts of meds to help out (I've got a 4 yr old and a job, so difficult to try to recover). I'm just worried if I get a BFP this month that I may have caused any damage (ibuprofen, cold and flu tablets, cough mixture). Anyone else been ill and had to resort to any medication and then got a BFP? xx

I wouldn't say you have caused any issues, your placenta isn't active till around 6-8 weeks thousands of women drink and take all sorts of over the counter stuff without evening knowing they are pregnant I wouldn't panic at all!
