What cold medicine can I take?

Burnette
My husband and I have been trying to have another baby. We've been trying every single day. My 2 year old gave me his cold, and I'm very paranoid about what I take to ease my cold. Especially since I'm trying to convieve. My period is supposedly due on oct. 4th. But I don't wanna take anything that could cause a possible miscarriage or birth defects. Help please?
