Saline spray, Sudafed, neti pot. Steam up your bathroom and breathe it in. Lots of water. Hot liquids help, like hot water with lemon and honey or some tea.

Yes, these are all the things I am using too.  I also found a grape seed nasal moisturizing spray.

I'm in exactly the same boat as you, 13 weeks & all! I'm miserable ): the clogged nose causes a headache & the sore throat doesn't help the cough.

Definitely shouldn't take sudafed but the spray has been saving my life. Honey, as well! & lots of sleep of course hope you feel better soon!

Hope you feel better too!

I've been using the Breathe Right strips for sleeping at night. They really help me. I'm 9 weeks.
