Pregnant and full of cold

Just wanting a moan really I feel so rotten. I am 10 weeks and am full of cold is there anything safe to take to make me feel better?

I also have hg so feeling pretty rubbish anyway and my first day back at work this week has taken its toll. Think I'll be in bed by 7 tonight Grin

Oh wow, I've been pg and full of cold which is pretty miserable but at least I didn't have HG on top of it. I am currently enjoying a barking cough which DD brought home from school with her at 38wks pregnant, and my non existent abs are not enjoying the work out!

Is going to bed for the whole weekend an option? - I was v lucky that DH was working from home when I was ill so at least he did the school runs for me

I took vitamin C, and drank hot honey and lemon, and there were some sweets which made my throat feel better - can't remember the name but they were in a yellow bag, not a tube like lockets.
You can take paracetamol if you've got a temperature.
Hope it doesn't last too long

You can take paracetamol I tried to avoid it but I got the flu / a very very bad cold after my flu vaccine and I had to take it!

You can use forehead stick for headaches , seems like it wouldnt work but its great!

You can use vics vapor rub for babies they do a bath version if you dont have a very hot bath.

All of the above + sleeping helped me

feel better soon!
