6 wks pregnant with cold

So I'm 6 weeks pregnant and I have a cold. I have a appt on Thursday but feel like crap in the mean time. I Googled info about what meds I can and can't take but got mixed answers. Any suggestions? I've been making hot tea with honey. And resting is almost completely out of the question cuz I have a 7 yr old and a 9 month old.
