OP here. The studies seems to conclude it was more regular use of Tylenol throughout pregnancy that has the link with ADHD/autism.

One thing to keep in mind is that correlation does not equal causation. There may be something different about the group of women who use Tylenol more during pregnancy which increases the risk of ASD, but that it is not the medication exposure itself.

I am the mom of 5 NT kids and one ASD kid. I tried to avoid all meds during pregnancy, but am allergic to advil and aspirin, and had occasional migraines. So I did take very limited Tylenol in my pregnancies.
The dc that has asd, I took it maybe twice. One of my dc's, I had cluster migraines and took it much more, and they are NT.
As a mom of an autistic person, I'm so tired of being blamed for that. First off, my dc is amazing. Secondly, yes, I took a tylenol. I ate a hot dog. I'm old. , ect ect ect ...all ways I have heard to blame the pregnant person.
In reality, the far far far most likely reason for it is genetics. Just like for almost everything else. It is dx more now as we are more aware of it, but we all have that 'quirky' or unique relative in the family tree, who was probably not dx.
No, not joining any lawsuit.
No one is blaming you at all. I just had never heard of the link between Tylenol and autism.

Totally feel this. One of my kids has a nut allergy with no family history. I was pregnant with her during the “don’t eat PB” while pregnant period and “wait to give it to babies.” Boom, nut allergy. Of course they have reversed all this now and I feel like I totally screwed her for life, even though I did what I was “supposed” to at the time. I am still resentful they have that recommendation without being sure, clearly.
PP, I ate PB all through pregnancy and while nursing, and gave it to baby at 6 months. Boom, anaphylaxis and a peanut allergy. We have no allergies on either side of the family either. They clearly still don’t quite know what the true cause is, but the default is to blame mom.

The truth is that they still don’t fully know why the allergies occur. But it’s always the default to blame moms, just in case…

My kids were born in 2000 and 2004. As someone with a painful autoimmune condition, I took plenty of Tylenol throughout both pregnancies and neither of my kids have autism. At the time, acetaminophen was considered very safe during pregnancy and Advil and aspirin were to be avoided. Once my kids were born, my ob had me stop Tylenol and take Advil only while nursing.
I’m pretty sure recall print ads and tv commercials about how Tylenol is the only pain reliever that is safe for pregnant mothers. This study highlights in the early paragraph about pain relievers, how Tylenol was widely considered very safe during pregnancy.
