Sick - 18 weeks pregnant

Autumn

This is my first pregnancy and I want to hear your experience and advice taking medication while pregnant. My entire family tested positive right after Easter. My husband and I are still negative (as I write this) but I’m definitely coming down with something.

I have a medication cheat-cheat, approval form from my doctor as to what I can safely take: obviously Tylenol is on there, Benadryl, Sudafed, and Robitussin. I have a cough and mild congestion and I have been on the fence whether or not I need to take something. I’m leaning more towards allergies but I can’t help but think this must be the beginning stages of COVID since everyone is positive. I already had COVID back in January 🙄. I understand every pregnancy and body is different, but I would like your feedback on what worked/didn’t work.

Thank you and happy Friday everyone!
