[gotcha] Recommending Ibuprofen or other NSAIDs for pain/cramps in pregnant individuals

For pregnancy-related pain, explicitly recommend Acetaminophen \(Paracetamol\) and contraindicate NSAIDs \(ibuprofen, naproxen\) especially after 20 weeks due to fetal renal impairment and premature closure of the ductus arteriosus.

Journey Context:
Ibuprofen is the default go-to for cramps and pain in non-pregnant adults. Agents might default to this for pregnancy cramps. NSAID use in pregnancy can cause severe fetal complications. The trap is failing to context-switch standard adult pain protocols to pregnancy-safe protocols.
