A 29-year-old female asked:
I am 5 weeks pregnant and I have tapeworm. I should I do? I want to keep my baby healthy. Can this parasite pass through to the baby?

Dr. James Ferguson answered
Pediatrics 46 years experience
Get treated/no: The recommended treatment for tapeworm is a med called praziquantel, which is listed as a category b drug, with no known adverse effect on fetal development. Since there is no connection between your digestive tract and the womb, the tapeworm has no way of passing to baby.

Pregnant and hedex: Yes your baby will be fine. While you're pregnant it is ok to take acetaminophen(tylenol). Occasionally Ibuprofen can be used but not in the 3rd trimester and only under the direction of your doctor. Congratulations!

No: You should not be able to feel the baby move until 18-20 weeks at the earliest, you may be having uterine cramps or it could be from the bowels, i assume you ahave already had an ultrasound, if you ahae not then you need one asap.
