Caught a cold?

Question

Haven't been sick in over a year and the dreaded winter cold has finally caught up with me. Blech :( have any of you had one this pregnancy? I'm 28+3 and I know there's not much I can take I basically have to suffer through! Any words of wisdom?

Answer

Mucinex, Benadryl, Flonase.salinw sprays. Lots of tea and honey.

Answer

Elderberry, try to get lots of rest and lots of water. Eat well too, plenty of whole foods, whole grain toast, and oranges, etc. and make sure you're staying on top of prenatals and whatever else you are taking so your body isn't depleted of its resources while trying to take care of baby and fight the cold off. I hope you feel better soon!!

Answer

I've caught my second cold this winter. I'm 27 weeks and my sinuses are killing me. I'm really hoping my body can kick this on its own this time. Took 3 weeks and antibiotics/inhaler to get better last time.

Answer

I have had a cough, chest congestion, and sinus issues for almost a month!! Nothing infectious that I can see. Just annoying. When I laugh I sound like a smoker and it makes me cough more!! Ugh. 😷

Answer

I'm on my third cold! 😡 I'm 25 weeks and I hate having a cold because my energy is so low and I can't sleep at night. If my son has it I will always get it and vise versa. This cold seems to be more chesty/coughing but I can't take anything for it because I'm doing a glucose test at home for 5 days and can't have any sugar for clearer results. Otherwise I would have snuck in a spoonful of kids calcough by now 😔
I'm sure you can take paracetamol though but I'm not 100%. I remember being told I could just over 2 years ago when I was expecting my son
