Hi Ladies... hope you are feeling better than me...I started getting cold symptons 2 days ago, cough, sore throat, stuffy nose, cold sweats, fatigue...no fever luckily but I'm really feeling terrible. Not sure if its necessary to call doctor? I'm 8 weeks.. Any insight would be appreciated xox

I will tell you what helped me get rid of a cold fast...zinc and edelberry lozenges, edelberry and echinacea tea, vit C, lots of fluids, home made chicken soup, netipot to clear my sinuses, and because I have 3 kids to take care of I also asked my OB what

I'm glad you posted this; I got an upper respiratory infection a few days ago and have been miserable.  I think I'll try the suggestion of the zinc lozenges and keep pushing the fluids and Emergen-C!

Be careful with emergenc! That's 1000 mg of vitamin c per packet. That is a lot at once when pregnant. Especially of you take more than one a day. I would check with a doctor to find out how much is safe.
