All of a sudden I woke up this morning with the worst sore throat and miserable congestion. I know people talk about"pregnancy congestion." Is it such a thing or am I getting sick?
I have had some days & nights (usually one every week or two), where I am unreasonably congested, and I have been overall more congested than before I was pregnant.
This last time, I also got a sore throat and stuff, so I am thinking this time around it was a cold. Sounds like you might be getting one too. Feel better soon!
I'm also very congested. Last night, I was sure that I'll be waking up with runny nose and sore through..I've been drinking orange juice like it's going out of style, I feel a bit better today but still very congested.. I've been taking it easy and staying at home..I hope you feel better soon.
I'm way more congested now that I'm pregnant. I also notice that I sneeze ALL the time! But, the fact that you have a sore throat means you may be getting sick.
I had a cold 2 weeks ago and it's all gone now... but the congestion stuck around. Nasal spray is my best friend to give me some relief so I can breath.
I had horrible congestion too and my mother in law recommended buying a humidifier. I run it every day when I am home and I started feeling much better!
