Sore throat at 9 weeks

[Cherie2023]

Hi ladies!Did any of you have to deal with similar situation ? Are we not allowed to take cough syrup? Can we have Strepsils? I am trying to sip warm water to keep it down. Do you suggest I meet my doctor? Looks like some bug, got mild hear body ache too. Any suggestions would really help.

Tia.

Hi, I went to my doctor when i had a sore throat as i wasn't sure what to take and he prescribed me something safe for baby.

I didn't take cough syrup or strepsils.

I was on antibiotics it then became allergic cough, very dry on inhaler now. Much better than how I was few weeks ago.
