I had a really bad headache this morning so i took advil (ibuprofen) i am trying to get pregnant and my last period started on 11\9 ... did i harm the baby ??

Advil (ibuprofen) and pregnancy: If your last menses was sept 11, then the biggest risk to using advil is an increase in bleeding. Use tylenol (acetaminophen) if you have a headache. Check in with your doctor as soon as you miss your menses.
