I have to ask, has no one told you ladies that you are absolutely allowed to take Zyrtec and Benadryl? Saved me during my pregnancy. I could never breathe at night from the congestion.
thanks ladies I really needed to talk to someone who understood this problem...its really making me moody and agitated...hopefully one of those works for me
I went to the doctor and she said take tylenol and do the Ayr saline nasal neti rinse hit (neti pot) and its about the only thing she said that was safe while you are pregnant and most places with a pharmacy has it. I got mine at Albertsons for $10
I was told by my doctor that I can use sudafed. One tablet every 6 to 8 hours. Its a life saver! And totally safe! I can't sleep with out it. Hope this helps!
Yep. Nothing you can do about it. Besides the basics which may or may not work. It gets better. But sadly, as i get closer to the finish line, all my first trimester symptoms come back. :( i have nasal congestion AGAIN! 36 WEEKS
I know what you mean!! I hate the congestionI been having:[ &where I live the allergies are really bad this year
I'm 19 weeks and I can't sleep with my mouth open but its not as bad when i lay on my back I try to lay that way but I need to breathe smh this is the most uncomfortable thing ever
Seriously its hell bad. .I slp wd a open mouth coz I cnt breathe wd my nose :/
Nasal sprays and the vicks inhaler! Not the rub! It helped me lol
How far along are you? Mine was really bad through the first and second trimesters. I'm almost 34 weeks now and it's gotten better. But now there are other wonderful symptoms :|
I want to try sniffing olbas oil because vicks does nothing for me but apparently it's got an ingredient in it that's not safe during pregnancy
I just bought some lockets sweets yesterday but I'm so tempted to eat them all at once :/
Really? Omg It has to be something better than these nasal strips, vicks, and the Tylenol isn't even helping ugh I feel miserable..
Lol there's not really anything you can do about it. It's just one of the many pregnancy joys people fail to mention.
I went to my dr about it today and he sent me on my way! He thought I was a time waster you could tell by the look on his face :/
