Anyone have any cold remedies for pregnancy? I know I cant really have any cold medicines. I feel so blegh. I’m currently making some tea with some honey in it, so maybe that will help my throat a little bit.
Thanks! I hope so too! And yeah, it says mucinex I’m pretty sure, but I dont have any right now. And Benadryl, which I do have, but I’m trying to go the no medicine route out of my own paranoia. 😂 But if I get desperate enough I might take one.
@llamapantaloons Awww don't be paranoid. A little beny won't hurt, better than walking around getting worse. Stay healthy!
@m00my2five, True! I try not to be paranoid, but you know! 😂
Thanks! I might have to bust out the humidifier. I dont have a neti pot right now, sadly. I’ll have to pick one up someday.
Definitely a sinus rinse. Either Neti pot or I used the Neil med bottle. Like 3 times a day at least. I also used a ginger shot daily that was recommended on here by @dontblockme… (for some reason her name isn’t popping up when I type that) it was a ginger shot that had cayenne pepper and would clear you up. I am totally hippy dippy when pregnant and don’t want meds but the sinus rinse saved me from serious sinus infection trouble when I had the flu
Thanks! I might have to look into getting a neti pot. I’ve never used one before. But I’ll be looking into it. As for ginger shots…maybe I’ll try. 😂 I hate normal ginger. I dont mind powdered ginger in recipies, but like chunks or pureed, idk how I’d handle that.
@llamapantaloons, nah I’m with you. Ginger is nasty in any quantity and the shots were gross, but at least they were over quickly. I was always just too paranoid to medicate so I tried this, that and the other first. The sinus rinse should be super helpful. I still choose it over meds now even without being pregnant
@ltee, I’ve heard a lot of people say really good things about sinus rinses, so I believe it!
Following cause I’m dying 🤣 I refuse any medicine anyway and I can’t have honey Lmao.
@sourpatchkid, 😂 Well, a little tmi here, but luckily my yeast infection is very mild. I really only notice it once every few weeks or so. 😝 But I had my doctor check and yeah, she instantly told me to use the monistat.
@llamapantaloons, nah I’ve heard worse that’s far from tmi. But that’s good it was mild.
@sourpatchkid, Oh I have too! I was using the Eve period tracking app before I got pregnant, and you have to be so careful on this discussion forums. The pictures I’ve seen….. 😬
Vaginal labor is so easy I would rather take the contractions any day than to have to have a c section
Any mom's in here have that's been induced if so what happened?? I need some advice.
need suggestions....
So at work we have a drink thief. Any time we put a drink in the fridge it disappears. I swear I know who it is. So far he's taken drinks from everyone that works in the office, we even put a sign to not take anything you didn't pay for and wrote our names on the drinks. The person I think is taking them works out of the office so we never get to see who is drinking them.
I want some braces so BAD 😩 anybody have any experience in getting them or have them now??
Any mommies who already have kids have any with ADHD? My youngest daughter was just diagnosed with it and I have some questions.
There are meds you could take, your doctor should have given you a list of meds! Hope you start feeling better soon!
