I also came down with a wicked cold this week! You shouldn't really take anything unless you have to. Go to the American Pregnancy Association site and they will have guidelines. There is not much that they approve in the way of meds, but there are a couple that are ok. I just did a lot of rest, water, hot decaf tea, vitamin C. I am using Breathe Right strips at night which have helped me to sleep. I used Vicks chest rub one night. First time I have ever had to get through a cold without my beloved NyQuil!!!!
Lots of rest!! And cold meds that contain no alcohol.
