I have influenza, apparently the flu shot was ineffective this year. My cough is out of control. Went to urgent care yesterday and my o2 levels were very low they almost admitted me to the hospital. Doc put me on tamiflu and robitussin with codine since I am almost 20 weeks. I also was coughing so hard I was pulling muscles in my groin so they checked baby's heartbeat and said everything looked good. They also said if it gets worse to come back. Go in and get checked out.
I have lung issues and have had horrible boss of coughing that last three or more months. I started to have the initial tickle that brings it on,I got the breath doterra oil and it knocked out down to les than three weeks. I would just carry the bottle everywhere with me and when I felt like I was going to cough,I would open the bottle and inhale until the urge passed. It really saved me big time. I am 32 weeks and the cough basically doesn't exist now.
I have had pneumonia and chronic asthma both pregnancies and my first was born healthy and this one is growing healthy. Ask them to check your chest.
My first bub broke a rib because i was so sick and coughed as he kicked.
Im petrified this lil one will as well...
Robitussin is what I took this week that I was sick helped so much I felt like I was dying with the ugly cough
I went to urgent care. Robitussin was recommended along with an antibiotic for severe sinus infection. Dr didnt like that i had mild fever at all! I coughed sometimes until I vomited. It was horrible. Straight lemon juice with room temp water also helped some. Also hot lemon ginger tea with honey was good. Two tablespoons of warm olive oil swallowed but don't drink anything else for awhile also soothes the throat.
I have a horrid cold. I'm thinking to go to urgent care because I literally have moments where I cannot breathe. Tylenol is a joke! Cough drops do not stop the cough or make my throat better. Tonsils are size of golf balls and severe sinus pain and earache ever. Coughing up thick yellow mucus. I cannot imagine what my baby is experiencing. I'm just miserable.
My doctor told me I could take rubitussin . You can also do cough drops.
