Nasal drainage & Nausea...

Anyone else having drainage/ stuffy nose issues? I've been experiencing nausea all day the last 1-2 weeks and the last few days it's been made worse due to lovely nasal drainage. Anyone know of a good natural remedy or what other medications are ok to take for this  while pregnant?

Re: Nasal drainage & Nausea...

  • I have this.  Runny nose and no sore throat is the first clue I'm pregnant.  I don't think there's much you can do.  Humidifier?

  • Yeah, I've got the stuffies bc it's that time of year here... I think Sudafed is ok but I'd just check with OB on meds if you want to be sure.
                                                                                      
  • I've got the same thing. OTC Sudafed is okay per my OB, though it's only a little helpful.

  • Looks like I may need to get a neti pot/nasal flo.. sudafed doesn't usually work for me!
  • My ob cleared flonase for me when I had a cold a couple weeks ago. Only thing that seemed to help me.

  • My OB okayed me to use Claritin, Zyrtek, or Allegra (make sure it's NOT the D- version, just the regular on-the-shelf versions), or Benadryl.  And she said my rhinocort nasal spray is ok too.  I always get congestion with post nasal drip during pregnancy and I hate it.
