i was looking up to see if i could take ibuprofen while bf and i came across this and thought you ladies would like to read it....

The next drug of choice for headache and pain control for most pregnant women is ibuprofen, also called Motrin, Advil or Nuprin. Most studies suggest this too is safe to take in early pregnancy.

However (there are so many “howevers” in medicine), two studies did show that ibuprofen could increase a woman’s risk of miscarriage, perhaps by interfering with early implantation of the fetus. So, if you’re trying to get pregnant, some very conservative doctors (not politically, but the medically be-very-careful docs who advise you to live in a virtual cocoon while trying to conceive) might also tell you to consider avoiding ibuprofen. (Don’t worry too much, though: If you’re already pregnant and things are progressing along normally, you don’t need to fret about past ibuprofen use.)
