I was there two weeks ago--had an 8 week sinus infection. What helped me tremendously was drinking tons of water and using a Neti Pot. </p> <p>I have allergies too and use NasalCrom which is supposed to be super safe and helped with the nasal allergies!</p> <p>Good luck :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-well-soon-when-pregnant#post-1873446 Mon, 22 Sep 2014 17:41:02 +0000 namaste 1873446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been drinking tons of fluids and just trying to rest (which is impossible) but I feel your pain! Been stuffy and achy on and off for three weeks now at 24 weeks. I hope you feel better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-well-soon-when-pregnant#post-1873427 Mon, 22 Sep 2014 17:08:12 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1873427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cmomma17: tons of fluids, Tylenol cold, and I swear by vitamin c !! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-well-soon-when-pregnant#post-1873425 Mon, 22 Sep 2014 17:05:24 +0000 FliegepilzHut 1873425@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>PSA: Use distilled water in your Neti pot! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-well-soon-when-pregnant#post-1873214 Mon, 22 Sep 2014 14:28:06 +0000 Boheme 1873214@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: @cmomma17: I second that. The neti pot helps me SO much!<br /> A good soak in the bathtub (with some epsom salts, or lavender oil, or whatever you have on hand) with some light reading, and then hopping in bed early always makes me feel better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-well-soon-when-pregnant#post-1873132 Mon, 22 Sep 2014 13:42:51 +0000 cmomma17 1873132@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: you know, I've never tried one, but it might be worth a shot, thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-well-soon-when-pregnant#post-1873130 Mon, 22 Sep 2014 13:40:55 +0000 looch 1873130@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Neti Pot? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-well-soon-when-pregnant#post-1873128 Mon, 22 Sep 2014 13:40:29 +0000 Adira 1873128@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cmomma17: Definitely skip the bath! Xander only gets one 2-3 times a week because of his eczema, so I can promise you skipping one day won't hurt! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-well-soon-when-pregnant#post-1873122 Mon, 22 Sep 2014 13:38:54 +0000 cmomma17 1873122@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: haha, sweet plan! Luckily I made tonight's dinner yesterday so I just have to nuke it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-well-soon-when-pregnant#post-1873119 Mon, 22 Sep 2014 13:38:08 +0000 cmomma17 1873119@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: I will try to push water a little more. I'm doing the bare minimum at work today. Feeling sick affects my brainpower unfortunately.<br /> I've been eating whole foods all day too and hoping that helps (mandarin oranges right now for some Vit. C). Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-well-soon-when-pregnant#post-1873116 Mon, 22 Sep 2014 13:37:48 +0000 blackbird 1873116@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cmomma17: Totally skip the bath. Throw a grilled cheese sandwich at your kid, lay down, turn on Mickey mouse, and call it a night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-well-soon-when-pregnant#post-1873113 Mon, 22 Sep 2014 13:36:36 +0000 cmomma17 1873113@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: He works evenings :silly: Thank you for trying to help :)<br /> I think I might give myself permission to skip LO's bath tonight, just thinking about it makes me exhausted ... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-well-soon-when-pregnant#post-1873112 Mon, 22 Sep 2014 13:36:24 +0000 blackbird 1873112@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Drink lots of fluid sand take it easy at work. if you can't truly REST, then at least don't exert yourself and hydrate yourself as much as you can and eat nutritious foods. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-well-soon-when-pregnant#post-1873109 Mon, 22 Sep 2014 13:35:34 +0000 Adira 1873109@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cmomma17: Ugh, that sucks. If calling out sick isn't an option, then the only thing I can think of is just going to bed as early as possible! Maybe you can get your husband to take over evening duties so you can rest?? Assuming he's around to do it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-well-soon-when-pregnant#post-1873104 Mon, 22 Sep 2014 13:33:18 +0000 cmomma17 1873104@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: Can't call out sick this week unfortunately. :( My boss is already out this week and there are only two of us left. And if I did call out tomorrow, my mom is our Tuesday childcare so her and LO will be at my place anyways = no rest. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-well-soon-when-pregnant#post-1873093 Mon, 22 Sep 2014 13:29:17 +0000 Adira 1873093@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh wait, I thought of something if you can do it. Bring your kid to daycare (or wherever), call in sick, go home and sleep! But that's only if you have sick time or something so you can stay home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-well-soon-when-pregnant#post-1873088 Mon, 22 Sep 2014 13:28:21 +0000 Adira 1873088@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Um, nothing. :( Go to bed as soon as your toddler does and pray you both sleep through the night.</p> <p>Feel better! &lt;3 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-well-soon-when-pregnant#post-1873087 Mon, 22 Sep 2014 13:27:27 +0000 cmomma17 1873087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh, I'm under the weather guys :( </p> <p>I'm almost 18 weeks pregnant and feeling rotten. Achey, tired, stuffy, headache. Can't "rest" because I have a toddler and a full time job. What can I do to get better? :( </p>
