Stinking cold

Hi all,
I am 28 weeks pregnant and have an awful cold. I am taking plenty of paracetamol to keep my temp down and am drinking honey and lemon but it's giving me terrible heartburn.
My chest and throat feel raw and strepsils are not doing anything.

Can anyone think of something that might ease it? Feeling bloody awful and a bit sorry for myself.

Me too! I'm 32 weeks.

Gargling with salty water is really good for relieving a sore throat.

Oh thank you. I will try that

Hope you're feeling better soon. Flowers
