Colds

Has anyone developed a cold during pregnancy. If so what can you take. I can get quite bad when full of cold and can last a long while due to also being asthmatic. So I'm very cautious about what I can take

There isn’t really anything you can take other than paracetamol. You could try making a lemon and ginger tea and standing in a shower. I would go to the chemist tomorrow and see what they suggest.

I’ve been suffering with this all week, it’s awful. I’ve just been making ginger, lemon and turmeric shots in my juicer and hoping they perk my immune system 🤞 other than that I haven’t taken anything and just keeping hydrated! Xx

I had a really bad cold a few weeks ago… managed to kick it with teas, hot showers and lots of rest.
Make ginger/lemon/honey tea, especially before you go sleep at night so you sweat it all out. Also I’ve started taking turmeric/ginger/orange/lemon shots like Jessica posted like a year ago and stopped due to morning sickness but I deffo recommend, especially now!!!
