Cold remedies while bf, are there any more allowed than when pregnant? <hopeful emoticon>

[Piffle]

Am coming down with shiteous cold and sore throat.
What am I allowed? am fully bf 4 wks old ds2.
Time too short with him to search archives or google
HELP!

well I googled after all
allegedly pseudoephedrine is considered safe even though small amounts only pass into reastmilk
Guess I'll have to really be suffering (ie not being able to sleep) before succombing

A hot drink of hot water with a lemon squeezed in and a couple of Paracetamol??is that how your spell it. I have had cold twice now since dd was born 9 months ago & I am afraid it's just a case of get on with it. Docs have no sympathy & it just goes to prove how tough us mums are. However, when you dh or dp cathes the same cold he will stay in bed for a whole week!
