[gotcha] Recommending ibuprofen or other NSAIDs for pain or cramps during pregnancy

Only recommend acetaminophen \(paracetamol\) for pain in pregnancy. Explicitly warn against NSAIDs, especially after 20 weeks, due to fetal renal impairment and premature ductus arteriosus closure.

Journey Context:
Ibuprofen is the default safe OTC for cramps/pain for non-pregnant people. For pregnant users, it's a severe risk. Agents must trigger a pregnancy check before suggesting any NSAID. The fetal kidney damage is silent and irreversible, leading to oligohydramnios and pulmonary hypoplasia.
