I took tylenol and robitussin when I got a cold my doctor told me to go get robitussin that was safe for pregnant women the pharmacist helped me find one that did not have a certain med in it. don't think I would have made it without the robitussin

Unfortunately no there isn't anything U can take when prego for a cold. Tylenol is about it. Try to get extra sleep. What helped me (I was sick twice this pregnancy-it's horrible)- drink extra water, lots of OJ, tea-water w honey & lemon, gargle w lysterine, salt water, or apple cider vinegar diluted w water. Sleep. Good luck hope u feel better.

There's not much you can take besides Tylenol ..  I was sick about 3 times during my pregnancy and drank non caffeinated tea with honey and lemon .. And only took Tylenol once because I had a fever .. Just have to becaredul with the type of teas that you drink
