My water had broken but was not dialated so they gave me something and now I forgot the name for that.
annor, oftentimes they will give Pitocin in that instance to strengthen contractions.
I am an OB/GYN nurse and also used to work in Labor and delivery. When I was pregnant for my twins I took terb/brethine routinely to prevent preterm contractions. One oth the twins has ADHD the other does not.
So.......................I don't know. I do remeber my mom saying when she was pregnant with my sister they gave her diet pills because she gained too much weight with her first pregnancy (me) and per my mother my sister came out screaming and hasn't stopped since. This was 1966-my sis is definately ADHD.
That's my input

I was on a t-pump for 7 weeks and my son is ADD. Never took anything but prenatal vitamins for any of my 4 children....2 are ADHD, 2 are not....I did not take terb with my first son and he is ADHD. I took it with my 2nd son, born 16 months later, and he does not have ADHD and is in fact advanced maturity wise.

okiemom39175.4243402778I am a grandmother with adhd, have 2 of my 3 children with adhd and 3 of my 10 grandchildren with adhd. I took absolutely no meds when pg, only my dtr took brethane and she is the one without adhd kids! I think a hereditary or genetic factor is more to cause than any medication.I was on terbutaline pump from 12 wks till 32 wks. I think my sons ld is from being on this medication. I can't find any info about this.
