I have the most miserable cold!!! Stuffy/runny nose, headache, sore throat ... the whole nine yards!

Anyone else have this/had this during pregnancy? Are there any cold medications that are safe to use during pregnancy? My body is so achey I can't even get out of bed!!!!

    I am feeling the same way. I have taken Sudafed and tylenol and that is it. Still not feeling great. I just want to sleep.

    I had a cold when I first found out I was pregnant, and just a few weeks ago had that achy body cold/flu.  It was so miserable!  I just took tylenol for it.  It was the full length of a cold, though, a week of scratchy throat, stuffy/runny nose, and several days of the achy body.  :(

     Hope you feel better soon!

    I am sick right now, so I feel ya! I am trying to avoid meds...but when I do take any I opt for Dimetapp and Tylenol. I am paranoid about taking anything, even though I have the ok from doc.

    He said anything Tylenol brand is ok, Sudafed, Dimetapp, Triaminic. Cough drops. Hope you feel better soon, I am on my 4th day of it and hating it. Crossing my fingers that it will clear up before baby comes!
