  • what is that?

    Quoting KokoJones:

    i used my neti pot.... not everyone knows what one is or how to use it but it helped me immensely as well as sitting in the steam. tea with lemon and honey really helped with the sore throat and getting my voice back..... hopefully you don't have strep, though **hug**

    Quoting AlyssaMommy2008:

    ughh i need something... i feel like i cant breath and i lost my voice already!

  • Only Robitussin and Tylenol are safe, that's what my OB told me... I have been decommissioned the entire last month and HOPE AND PRAY I get better so while I am a huffin and a puffin the baby out, I will be able to huff and puff without passing out! lol...

    Hope you get better too!

  • you need to ask your doc.

    what was okay for one person may not be okay for you.

    I had a nasty cold while 8.5 mos preggo and I was okayed to take nyquil for a few days...but no more than that bc of the alcohol in it.
