Pregnant. Got Stung By Wasp On Finger. Will It Have Any Impact On Baby?
Question: I am 28 weeks pregnent and got stung by wasp or bee on my finger today. I just want to find out if it will impact my baby.
Hello
Thanks for writing to us
No it will not affect your baby as you are having third trimester and the period of organogenesis is first trimester.
There can be local irritation and pain for which you can apply local heat with analgesic ointment.
You can take paracetamol if there is redness and inflammation.
Take care
Best wishes
