Oj and lemon tea is about it i had the same thing about a month ago that turned into a sinus infection eyes were swollen and everything so i did the antibiotics i felt it just wasn't going away and the sickness for such a long period of time had to be harder on my lil guy then the meds.
Trying more vit C and the tea, thanks ladies!
Try the vitamin C thing, ive heard it helps a lot. My husband and I aslo make tea out of fresh ginger, basil and some honey. Just crush the leaves, drop a chunk of ginger in and pour hot water over it and steep for 7-10 min. Its opens up your nasal passage and helps clear your head. Tastes good too. I hope you feel better :) im with you, i dont like taking antibiotics or medication either, especially while pregnant.
In my last pregnancy my Dr recommended a high dose of vitamin C for 2-3 days. 2000-3000mg each day to boost the immune system.I had a cold hang around for four months of pregnancy, and it helped my body recover finally! your body pees out what it can't absorb so it's safe, but don't do it for more than 4 days, you can end up with a sore tongue /mouth.
