Wondering if there are any moms or moms-to-be out there with whom I can commiserate?

Im 4 weeks, 3 days along (WOO!) and on Sunday developed a rattling, wheezing cough. Managed to get to my GP on Tuesday, and sure enough, I have a lung / sinus infection...

Sorry Disturbed, but I am NOT “Down with the Sickness”!

Supposedly my lungs “sound clear” (WTF?!?!) and because my mucus isn’t day-glow technicolors, there is nothing to be done but wait it out.

Doc said I could take Benadryl and regular Claritin or Zyrtec to alleviate some of the symptoms, but so far that is a bust.

I have taken hot steam showers to break up some of the congestion, but that is really more like a bandaid on a stab wound.

Throw in my frequent morning sickness and I’m less than a happy camper.

I would do anything for the little joy that is couped up in my uterus, even if it means sucking it up and suffering through this hellscape...and yet I feel like there HAS to be some kind of relief, right?!

Anyone have any safe home remedies or recommendations?!
