I have been taking 2 benadryl every other night because I can't sleep. I am almost 10 weeks pregnant with my second. With my first pregnancy, towards the end I took it or tylenol PM every night. I'm not a doctor, obviously, but my doc said it was OK. My first doctor said to avoid all drugs, especially in the first trimester, but then I switched doctors and she is more lenient. I looked up the pregnancy category of these drugs and they are both B which claims to know no harm to fetus. I wouldn't feel bad about taking one. Others might disagree. Tylenol and benadryl (the other ingredient in Tylenol PM) are both the safest drugs to take during pregnancy. Good luck!
