What did they say?: Did u ask them because u should have asked them. That has hydrocodone and acetominiphen, which normally u would not take if u are pregnant but after that surgery if u have to use those for a few days it will most likely not cause a problem but ask your OB as your OB may want to have the surgeon use something different, u are not supposed to take mortin either.
