Yes. Many times. I don’t remember the mgs honestly. It was a high dose though. I have severe asthma and it’s uncontrollable when I’m pregnant and had many asthma attacks that required prednisone. My kids were all fine.

@SquishyMommy1 wow that's good to hear your babies were fine and here I am worried about 1mg a day at 33 weeks pregnant the possible side effects concerned the hell out of me doctor said it's unlikely baby will have any side effects due to low dosage I'm hoping she's right

I wasn't on prednisone but I did use clobetasol which is the highest strength topical corticosteroid you can use and also an anti-IgE inhibitor and both my babies are fine. Likely if you need a small dose your doctor is weighing the risks.

I really wouldn’t worry about it. Especially at 33 weeks. Baby is pretty much fully developed at this point. Just packing on weight so it’s unlikely for it to have any negative affects.

Your baby will be just fine mama!
