Locket sweets for sore throat

[Amanda86]

Hi girls

Is it ok to have lockets while pregnant?

Today my throat is agony, I'm at work until half 7 tonight and all the little shop next to work had was lockets or soothers. I've bought some lockets and currently eating one. Can't see anything on packet so hope it's ok.

Thanks x

I did a quick google for you and the general consensus seems to be that lockets are fine. Hope you feel better soon xx

Thank you very much for that. I'll pop to shop after work tonight to see if I can get something for it xxx

Hi Amanda86. Thanks "Tugsgirl" for doing that. Try some old-fashioned hot lemon and honey too when you get home. Hope you're soon feeling better. Diane

Thank you Diane. I don't know if it's linked to my sore throat but my mouth is so dry, no matter how much I drink it still feels so dry 😢 Xx

Hi. Probably means you need more fluids. Always best to drink more if you have a virus or similar. Diane

Thanks Diane. I do drink 2-3 litres of water a day (with diluting juice). Hoping it'll shift soon xxx

Hi. Good girl. I'm sure it will pass, just an uncomfortable nuisance! Diane xx
