Head cold? Worried !!!
Hi ladies, I woke up this morning at 6 feeling like ?. I had a sore throat, headache (pressure feeling in my forehead) and my right ear feels weird. It's like my hearing is muffled. Only in the right ear. It doesn't hurt, but it feels really weird. I've been drinking hot water with lemon and gurgled salt water for my sore throat, that's been helping a little. I took some Tylenol (after going back and forth about it) for my headache. But my ear is driving me nuts. When I eat something it sounds like when you chew when you have headphones in (hope this makes sense). My MIL bought me some chamomile tea but on the box it says to consult a doctor before drinking. Really?! Any advice or help on what this could be? It just seems weird to get a sudden head cold in summer. I just pray baby is ok. I'm 6+1.

Sinus colds are pretty common during pregnancy. I'm experiencing several of the same things. Try to rest up

Thank you. I hope it goes away soon. Eating chicken noodle soup and trying to rest. My 11 yr old had a slumber party last night, perfect timing... not. Lol.

likely a cold but if the ear becomes painful see your pcp. I believe chamomile tea is not advised in pregnancy.

Not sure if you have a diffuser but diffusing thieves essential oil blend is amazing! My midwife says it's completely safe and coming from someone with yearly sinus infections it's awesome! It actually prevents illness and gets rid of it if you do get sick.

Thanks ladies. I didn't drink the chamomile tea and just stuck to hot water with lemon. I feel a little better today, but still have the "muffled" hearing in my ear. I feel definitely try the diffuser with the oil. Thank you ?
