I'm so frustrated with this constant congestion!!! I know im not sick because ive had the congestion since 2nd trimester and ive never had any other cold symptoms. Please tell me there is something i can do to get thru the day and be able to finally breath thru my nose again. I get anxious and feel claustraphobic and like I cant breath when i have to breath out of my mouth.
Any ideas would be nice!

You are going to laugh, but you know those things they use to suck out baby's nose at the hospital? I've been using one for 2 weeks now and I feel SO much better. I caught a nasty cold in L&D 2 weeks ago and this has helped a lot!
I also 2nd the neti pot/squeeze bottle. They are amazing.
This. Neti pot!
It'll clear up once you have the baby, but in the meantime you can take something just ask your doctor. My doc said I could take Sudafed, Benadryl, or Claritin (I think those were the ones). I've had congested with both of my pregnancies, but for those most part just lived with it, but it sounds like your's is much worse. I just developed a cold so have been taking Claritin and it seems to work pretty well.
