Self-Care at Home

If you are not sure if you are pregnant, a home pregnancy test will confirm or exclude pregnancy in most cases.

  • If the test is negative, discuss the bleeding and cramping with your health care provider.
  • If the test is positive and you have bleeding or cramping, call your provider.
  • Rest and avoid sexual intercourse.
  • You may also safely take acetaminophen (Tylenol) at any time during pregnancy. Do NOT take aspirin, ibuprofen (Motrin or Advil), or naproxen (Aleve) if you are pregnant.
