There’s not much that can be taken in the first trimester- I took paracetamol but not until second trimester, which I think is what is recommended (someone will correct me if I’m wrong). The only thing you can do is do all of the natural home remedies- steam shower to clear the chest, honey and lemon hot drink, water and plenty of rest. Feel better soon- remember that your body will be hit harder by bugs etc so be kind to yourself (it’s a lesson I’m learning as I’m in bed on Christmas Day with a stinker of a cold and sore throat).
Aww ok I am just drinking ginger and lemon tea for the past 3 days , but it’s nothing better and my stomach hurts when I cough . I control myself not to cough which I can’t . I also have sore throat and pain is horrible when I swallow . I am just worried when I cough as my stomach hurts and anything might happen to baby ..
Try holding your belly when you cough maybe? Baby is well cushioned so should be ok. Ice cream, sorbet or ice cubes for the sore throat? Soothers I think are ok for sore throats and pregnancy if that will help. It depends on whether you have morning sickness and can tolerate any of those. You will get through it.
You can have paracetamol in the first trimester too but that's pretty much it
I swear by warm black currant and paracetamol, works everytime with me. unless you need antibiotics then itll continue been painful. hope this helps.
I have the same, I'm 26 weeks. I have been taking paracetamol to bring down my temperatue and just bought Vix vape rub. I know it shouldn't affect baby but I do worry as well. I've coughing so much I'm making myself sick. Just trying to rest, wrap up and take baths. Fingers crossed we feel better soon.
Oh ya it’s horrible , I really get scared when I cough and I am just holding my belly . I should get Vix vape rub . Thanks for that .. I am scared to take paracetamol also .. I don’t know when this will get over , it’s been more than 3 days . I usually have more than week if I get cough .
I had just got over one then got this. Have you had the flu jab?
