Pregnancy Rhinitis

[ColloMama]

Hi everyone, just wondering if anyone has any advice or gone through the same thing. I'm 33 weeks pregnant and on some days I get so much sinus pressure. My nose feels like it wants to pop off and I get a bit of a headache with it. Thankfully I haven't been getting a fever, cough or any other symptoms of a sinus infection (and deffo not Coronavirus). The weird thing is, one day I'll be fine the next I feel like someone has kicked a football at my face. Then wake up the next day completely fine and will be fine for days. It's just annoying trying to manage it when it does come
up.

Does anyone have any recommended remedies or advice you've been given that work okay for you? I've got vicks but from what I've read up that can irritate it more?

I get bothered with this too - especially over the past few weeks with hayfever too. I use Sterimar nasal spray and find lying with a warm heat bag over my forehead/ sinus area really eases the pressure when it's bad. Hope you find some relief soon!

@Chooklass it's so annoying isn't it? Thank you, I'll buy some steminar tomorrow and give that a go!

I had this! It lasted for the whole of the first trimester plus half the second then just magically disappeared ! Good luck xx
