I have terrible bronchitis , I'm 23 weeks and I have a cold and it is just as bad. Unfortunately as we get further along it gera worse, make sure you use a humidifier and get plenty of fresh air. I used the cold humidifier w my first baby, and it worked great at night. During the day the only thing that really helped was not laying down or sitting too long, stay active and this will help act lot. If you don't work out do at least stretches or yoga,  these also help.  Also Vicks vaporub is a good one if the smell doesn't make you sick. Anytime you lay down be sure to stay at an incline x so many pillows are helpful at these times. Good luck and hang in there the great thing is they all go all way when we get out blessing.

Only bad thing I'm on bed rest for high risk pregnancy. Just feel like my air way is closing up on me. Even when I'm sitting straight up its the same thing

It's because your baby is squishing your lungs and also you might feel really hungry yet get full right away. Is the same thing your stomach doesn't have much space. Once your baby drops you will be able to breathe better. Sorry your going through this with your bronchitis but it's part of pregnancy.

That's what I was thinking maybe he is laying on my lungs. I try turning side by side to get him to move. Yes he is already really low an head down. Thanks tho :)
