The common cold

Carly

I'm 23 weeks pregnant and in the middle of the worst cold I've ever experienced. I'm trying to limit taking different medications, but I've been using Vicks, Tylenol on rare occasions and Ricola cough drops sparingly. My throat is incredibly sore and I've been trying to drink lots of honey/ lemon tea with occasional turmeric. My nose is completely blocked, saline rinses don't work, it comes out my eyes and down my throat. Does anyone have some pregnancy safe ideas to heal and get some sleep? I'm in a lot of pain and would like to get better!
