What do you take for...

Dry cough, runny nose, head congestion, sore throat, and achy body?

Ugh this damn weather!

Re: What do you take for...

  • Ugh :( Right there with you. My husband brought home a cold with all of this crap and I caught it from him a few days later. I've just been taking Tylenol and Benadryl. Plenty of ice cream and a self thrown pity party on the couch. Being pregnant and sick is awful!!

    I took Sudafed, and drank a ton of hot water with lemon and popped cough drops like crazy. Vick's on my chest and the bottom of my feet at night. Sorry you're sick!

    ETA: Typos make me crazy.

  • Try a hot shower or a steam bath. I find that even if it has no effect on the sick part it does wonders for my poopy spirit.

    Be well.
  • Sudafed has become my best friend. Also use a humidifier it will help!
  • I had a bad cold or flu or something awful around 6/7 weeks pg. My safe med cocktail of choice was Robitussin for cough, Mucinex without the D and/or saline solution for the runny nose, and tylenol for the aches. Sorry you got the plague :(

  • I like to keep it natural when pregnant, so I get a humidifier going, use saline nasal spray and ricola cough drops.

    That's all I could think of when I read your post.  Sorry I'm no help at all.
