Sore throat

Lindy
My husband has a slight fever 100.5*f and achy joints. I woke up this morning with a pretty decent sore throat. Normally at the first signs of getting sick I would load up on zinc, vitamin c, elderberry syrup and echinacea but I am currently 6w3d pregnant and am unsure if those are safe? Any suggestions to stop this cold in its' tracks??? PS we're leaving for vacation in less than a week and I REALLY don't want to be sick for that!!!!

I'm on the same boat! I picked up a humidifier and have been drinking lots of lemon tea and soup.

My dr. did not want me taking any kind of medicine before 12 weeks. Definitely call!!

I know the vitamin C is safe but I'm not sure about the rest of it.... You can always call your doctors office and ask them over the phone. Good luck and I hope you feel better soon!
