Pregnancy symptoms - nasal congestion

[Preggobelly]

I’m about half way through my 1st trimester with my 1st baby and I have started to get some symptoms which is good as it gives me piece of mind in some way but can anyway help alleviate the discomfort of this one….my nose and back of my throat are so congested. But it’s not like a cold! I’ve read that it may be due to my increased blood flow which affects this but it’s so uncomfortable. Has anyone had this and can you give me any tips on what I can do to make it a little less so?

I don't know how yours look like, mine is just this thick yellow stuff, need to give good blow to get it all out properly. Not sure anything can be done about it, unless yours is also allergy related.

That’s what mines is like too but it just keeps coming back again and again. The good thing is I don’t have allergies so hopefully it won’t stick around too long. Thank you.

You can use saline nasal sprays when you're pregnant. Try sterimar. I had this all the way through both pregnancies. It's rubbish!

Thank you, il order that and hopefully it helps. Thank you!
