15 wks pregnant & been using bethadine gargle 4 days without realizing not recommended for pregnant women, worried i might have swallowed a little bit?

Let OB know: Please let your obstetrician know but if you only swallowed small amounts this should not be a problem. The warning is there because some people would swallow the whole amount after gargling. As long as you gargled and spit it should be no problem.
