Tramadol is FDA pregnancy category C, meaning it may be harmful to an unborn baby. Tramadol may also cause serious or fatal side effects in a newborn if the mother uses the medication during pregnancy or labor.

Tramadol is a pain reliever, so yes you could take it, as long as you okay'd it with your doctor.
