My doctor said extra strength was okay as long as you're not taking more than one or two a day so it's probably at yor own discretion if you want to take extra strength or not

technically your not suppose to take anything just yet. You should wait till your 12 weeks. But that's just my option

No you cannot take extra strength. Tylenol does make regular that's what safe, no asprin, Motrin, excedrin or Ibuprofen you can however take generic Tylenol
