Pregnancy and Mx: I wouldn't worry about taking the dose of tylenol (acetaminophen) that you did. However, i wouldn't take any more until you check with your own obstetrician to discuss what you can and should not take during your pregnancy. I definitely would leave a message for your dentist that you would like to be seen tomorrow regarding the toothache. Your dentist can check with your obgyn regarding treatment & medication.

See dentist: Tylenol (acetaminophen) is ok in most pregnancies. But you need to see your dentist asap to treat the toothache. You can have dental treatment during pregnancy. Sometimes your OB will be consulted.
