Guest guest Posted July 27, 2008 Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 Also, I meant to ask you...I think you mentioned you took advair, singulair and ventolin though your pregnancy. Did it keep your asthma in check, or did you have flare ups anyway? Any problems with the baby (babies?) due to all the meds, that you know of? If you don't mind my asking, that is. I am curious because I wasn't on any meds at the time I had my daughter, except using a proventil inhaler as needed. My asthma did not get bad until a few years afterwards.
