Yes colds are horrible i had to take robitussin
For my cough and Tylenol for my other symptoms but honestly they all just suppressed it but didn't really clear it I had that cold and cough for almost 3 months it your immune system is focused on baby and you are left to fight that cold that on your own it will have to run its course hun

What if its an actual throat infection?  My throat is really really red. Hurts to swallow. I've tried all the natural home remedies. Homemade chicken soup with lots of lemon, hot tea with lemon and honey, salt water gargle, straight up lemon honey and a little bit of water syrup :( it's helped a bit but im undecided whether to make a doctor appointment or not. I did the Vicks vapor rub last night and it did help with the congestion. Now my nose is like a leaky faucet. Man sick and pregnant is horrible!! Never been through and I am amazed at how quickly it progressed! Just want to feel better already.

A spoonful of raw honey is good for a sore throat. Maybe drink some hot tea with honey and lemon? You poor thing, I hope you feel better soon!
