Sooo congested!

I am so congested. Can't breathe out of  my nose at all. I bought a Vicks Warm Steam Vaporizer tonight...so I'm hoping that at least helps me sleep. I'm trying to figure out what else I can do or anything I can take at 5 weeks pregnant.

I was the same.. went to the doctors and he gave me Rhinocort..a nasal spray that's safe in pregnancy.  I've been using it at bed time and within a week I was all better. Not only do I sleep better and don't snore anymore but my nose is completely unblocked during the day also.
