getting sick at worst possible time!

in 3rd Trimester
I have been so healthy lately, and now I am two days away from my c section and I'm getting a cold!! I'm concerned because I want my immune system at its best for my surgery and also I reaaaaaaally don't want to be coughing with c section stitches in, that will hurt so bad! Any ideas how to get rid of this in the next few days? I have a sore throat, sneezes and a headache.... :(

    Paracetamol. Don't take more than you have to and don't take the ones that have caffeine in them. Then lots of warm baths and rest. 

    I've had 2 colds during this pregnancy and i've tackled the worst of it in a few days by doing the above.
