I'm currently pregnant and using an inhaler, but I'm a bit worried about its safety during this time. Could you recommend an inhaler that's considered completely safe for pregnancy?
During pregnancy, it's important to avoid unnecessary medications, but inhalers like **Salbutamol** (a short-acting bronchodilator) are generally considered safe for asthma management. Always consult your doctor before starting any medication to ensure it's the best option for you and your baby.

I'm a bit concerned because it's been 42 days since my last period and I haven't gotten it yet. I'm worried I might be pregnant but I took two tests and they came back negative. I'm experiencing some symptoms like back pain, morning sickness, pelvic pain, and bloating. Could these symptoms mean I'm pregnant? When would be a good time to test again? What do you think these symptoms might indicate?
