Local anaesthetic while pregnant

Posted by Haggis (23 days ago)

Drs say it is safe but wonder if anyone has experienced any adverse reaction on having this?

Probably depends on the type and dosage - and you'd have to weigh the advantages vs. any risks. If it's not your ob/gyn recommending the local anaesthetic, you may want to double check with him/her, as some GPs are not always sensitive to risks to the fetus.
