OH hon...it stinks to be sick while pg....my advice would be to take more vitamin C you can take 500 mg extra on top of your prenatal vitamin....and the non-medicated cough drops...Get better really soon!!!
I had a wicked cold with my last pg and went to the pharmacist.. who gave me the most sorry look when I asked (coughing) what I could take if I was pregnant.. she said non-medicated lozenges, plenty of liquids and rest.. vitamin c through fruits.. and a prayer for it all to pass quickly... hahah.. for real.
(((hugs))) hope that you feel better soon!
Warm tea and honey - try natural remedies. Gargle with warm salt water several times a day- gross but natural. Get rest and vitamin C - Feel better soon!
I know its best to try not to taky Anything during the first trimester if you can absolutely avoid it, but here's a list of meds on my gyn. website. Just take out the spaces
