If your doctor prescribed you vicodin then it is okay to use it occasionally when your symptoms are so bad and tylenol does not help at all. It is true what Shannon said about the withdrawal symptoms, but that only happens after you take vicodin on a daily basis for at least two weeks, sometimes shorter for some individuals. You would have to take it daily and more than once a day to become physically addicted to where you would have withdrawal symptoms. Also if you took it like that close to delivery time it would affect the baby to where it could also have withdrawal if you do not stop taking it soon enough before the birth so it is completely out of yours and the baby's system. Just take it when you have to and do not take it consistently so the baby will not affected and you and the baby should be fine. Hope this helps. Good luck.
