Did you wear a Pregnancy Alert bracelet or band while you were pregnant? One of my online friends just told me that she plans to wear a Pregnancy Alert bracelet while she is pregnant just in case she is ever in a bad car wreck and can't speak to paramedics. That way the paramedics would know about her precious cargo and not administer a drug that might harm the baby. Honestly, I can't imagine why I never thought to wear something like this when I was expecting my baby. Of course, you'd wear a medical bracelet if you were allergic to penicillan or tylenol, because it could save your life. But a pregnancy alert bracelet or band could save your unborn baby's life. During my early months of pregnancy, I barely showed at all, so I can imagine that it would have been hard for paramedics to even know I was pregnant if I were unconscious and unable to speak. I'm definitely going to do this next time. Does anyone know where I can get one of these Pregnancy Alert bracelets?

i never even heard of these. i think it should be something the doctor gives when you go for your first visit. i am allergic to penicillan and tylenol but never thought of wearing one for that either.
