HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
This is below the maximum daily allowed dose of paracetamol (calpol) and this is a medication that is generally considered safe in pregnancy.
Also you are just into the 2nd trimester which is a safer time in terms of organ development of babies.
It should be okay.
I hope this helps
