35 weeks and sick.

I am now 35 weeks with my first and I have managed to come down with a terrible cold. Chest congestion cough runny nose sore throat whole 9 yards. I feel miserable and exhausted. I talked to my dr and said to take some benadryl and that's about it. Any other suggestions?  I am miserable and don't wanna go into labor being sick!

Warm lemon water with honey. Makes your throat feel sooo much better. Natural honey is supposed to "heal" your throat.

Any mucinex meds will help and start taking Allegra it's a allergy medicine.  My dr told me to take these I been sick for about a month and I'm 37 weeks. Drink plenty of fluid also, like orange juice and water, hot tea honey and lemon might help you also. Your Sore Throat You Can Use That Spray For Your Throat OR Cough drops.
