They say you can put it on infants feet, so I don't see why you couldn't use it on yourself wile pregnant.

I think you can, have you tried a vaporizer? It has the Vick's liquid and can last all night. I used it a lot during my last pregnancy. If you don't like that, maybe some essential oils on a burner? Anithyng "minty" will do the trick.

Hope this can help...
