Hello Mumsnet, I'm new here but I was hoping members might be able to help.
I'm lying low with tonsillitus, and am so worried about it affecting the tiny little thing growing inside me. I'm trying not to take paracetemol too often, and so far have resisted taking antibiotics, since I've only had the bug for 2 days. But I'm concerned that I am putting my pregnancy at risk... And will it put it more at risk if I take antiobiotics...
Does anyone know if tonsillitus goes away on its own if you stay in bed, drink lots and do lots of salt water gargling?
Thank you.
