being sick while pregnant

[october22_]

I'm suffering from a common cold . ear infection..Nose is stuffy and all . I'm so aggravated because there's really nothing pregnant women can take to heal this . Is anyone else going thru the same thing? Being sick and pregnant is the worst

[october22_]

I hate cough medicine . I've been taking decaffeinated green tea with lots of honey and halls in it

I feel you! I've been sick twice during this pregnancy!  It's horrible! I hated being sick, I never took anything I just let it pass! It took about a week!

Its sinus pressure built up once you start breaking up the mucus and pressure in your sinus cavities your ear will drain also dont sleep lying flat prop your head up so they can drain

What about the clogged ear though. I can't hear a thing out of one of them. They said it's dude to me being sick

I had the same exact symptoms as you for almost 2 weeks the first week was the worst. The doctor prescribed me allergy relief, ear drops and I also used vicks and would drink lots of OJ

I felt better in about 3-4 days. I still every once in a while get a stuffy nose but not much anymore. I drank warm tea and took a bath also used vapor rub and it helped clear my nose right up.

Amoxicillan is a good antibiotic but I have always had extremely bad sinuses before I was pregnant then being pregnant medicines are so limited I use a humidifier through the night just to keep the air moist and also vitamin c is very good for sinuses not harmful to baby since its a vitamin and if you boil water with vicks vapor rub in it ... it will be messy cleaning up and look weird but do that and put a towel behind your head and breath in the steam it feel sooooo amazing

You can feel the diffrence really fast. Your nose starts to feel better. Also my doctor said it was food even to drink that when your not sick

[Monicaaa_romeo]

I had that a few weeks ago and had lemon with honey warm drank it and made me feel so much better. Hope you get well soo. :)

So irritated because I can't hear a thing through my right ear .

I'm so Damn tired of taking tea. The doctor prescribed me amoxicillin and benadryl . How long were you sick until you got better?

Honey in warm tea is a natural healer  for sinuses

Yes! I'm going through the same thing. Stuffy nose,feeling congested. I talked to my doctor and she said it was normal because of all the expansion of muscles and blood vessels since we are giving all our blood we have to the baby. She said to use a vaporizer and drink some tea. It helped me! :)
