robinw, somthing I wondered when taking antibiotics for my sinusitis was what timing I should use. Should I take the probiotic before or after and how long should I leave between the two?

twiglett, I seem to get that kind of thing every winter - what eventually gets rid of it completely is using a steriod inhaler for a few weeks (safe during pregnancy, the steroids just stay in your airways really)

And try inhaling steam with or without olbas oil in it - it will lubricate your airways some and make it easier to breath and easier to cough up the gunk
Make sure you drink LOADS of water

bobthebaby - from what I've been told regarding probiotics & antibiotics (my dd is on long-term antibiotics so I'm interested in this) there is no point taking probiotics whilst you are on antibiotics as the probiotics just get killed off straight away. Once you have finished a course probiotics are good for building up healthy gut bacteria again.
