Sorry, asked a million times before no doubt, but what can I take for a cold while BFing?

Is it just paracetamol?

I'd normally be swigging that black gunky cough mix you get, popping Sudafed and chewing aspirin.

Baby hasn't succumbed so far but I'm not feeling just great TBH .

I've a feeling it's just paracetamol. Anyone else got a better memory?

just paracetamol, steaming with minty oil and some lemon juice in hot water as a drink... it does not taste great but helps if sore throut (cant spell sorry). i add a tsp of sugar to the hot lemon (no milk as it will curdal).

Just paracetamol and honey and lemon drink (it works better than you'd think!)
