this is my first time

Hi. I'm only 5 weeks pregnant and last night I started coughing a lot (I thought it was from working in the shop and breathing in dust since I have asthma) by the end of he night my throat was starting to hurt and now I just woke up and my throat even worse then last night and I still have a cough also my gums are swollen. I haven't had a doctor appt yet with my doctor but the nurse told me a list of medications that are safe to take but I don't remember what is safe for colds. Because of the holiday I can't call or get an appointment yet either.
