Cough Remedies?

I have one more day of antibiotics for the bronchitis, but this lovely cough is sticking around. It's way worse at night and it's really hampering my ability to sleep! I have some cough medicine that my OB prescribed and it's not doing anything at all...it almost feels like it makes the coughing worse!

Anyone know of any home remedies that are safe for pg ladies that may give me some relief tonight so I can sleep? TIA!

Try this! It won't cure it, but it will soothe your throat and chest at least.
2-3 lemon slices
Sugar and honey to taste (I usually do about a cup of sugar to make it sweet)
Cover with water and heat on the stove until it's boiling. Drink it while it's warm. When not pg, adding whiskey helps too. Hope you feel better!

Thanks! I'll see if I can find some lemons and try that before bed.

it's super gross, but gargling with salt water sometimes helps me!
