Send help! Sick in 3rd trimester - remedies?

Hey, looking for anything that has helped any of you while being sick & pregnant (cold/flu/covid, etc) I’m currently 3rd tri @ 32 wks and have picked up a terribly uncomfortable sickness. My body is in full pain/achey mode.

Biggest symptoms rn are throbbing heartache, full body aches (bone deep) very sore eyes, lots of drainage, sneezing, fatigue, and a low grade fever (I’ve been keeping track of that jic).

I heard that this med (photo) is safe/helpful for preggo people but wanted to get peoples opinions and hear if anything else helped them! *in a hot bath now, but it only lasts so long! 🥴😩

Hey Jennifer, that sounds awful and cant be easy! I did get a horrible cold but not in 3rd trimester. I opted for a - bunch of home remedies which included warmed honey and (juice from) fresh ginger, salt water gargles for sore throat, inhaling hot steam - can add vapour rub like Vicks but do check this is okay which can help with congestion/headaches and staying hydrated by drinking lots of water. Wishing you a speedy recovery x

Do you have a humidifier? That really helped me!
