It's on my dr's OK list. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sick-amp-pregnant#post-2186544 Thu, 21 May 2015 21:06:19 +0000 Corduroy 2186544@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sorry you're dealing with this. Showers and then using a neti pot have helped me the most. I've also been on Mucinex (without the decongestant) and I took Robitussin for three or four of the worst nights to quiet the cough. On the worst night I took a unisom. My doctor said she could write a prescription for a nighttime cough syrup with codeine if I felt I really needed it but I stopped short of that. </p> <p>I've been coughing stuff up for a month and an half now so I might not be doing it right. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sick-amp-pregnant#post-2186541 Thu, 21 May 2015 21:02:58 +0000 PinkElephant 2186541@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you have nasal congestion, a nettipot really can help. The squeeze bottle kind are easiest to use, IMO.</p> <p>I'm sorry you're not feeling well - hope it improves soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sick-amp-pregnant#post-2186505 Thu, 21 May 2015 20:36:05 +0000 FannyMae 2186505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Poor thing :( I've had a bad cold twice so far and I'm only 13 weeks. All I can suggest is lots of tea (if you can stomach it) and all the paracetamol in the world :( I also used the humidifier with eucalyptus oil stuff in it to help with congestion. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sick-amp-pregnant#post-2186462 Thu, 21 May 2015 19:50:32 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 2186462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This week has been awful; its a crazy week for DH and I both at work, K came down with croup, and now I've got the fever-y, chills and hacking cough virus that goes along with it.<br /> Since I can't take any cold meds, and I've run out of hot water standing in a steamy shower - what are your best cough and cold remedies? </p>
