Virus?
Since the start of my pregnancy i have been awful. Nausea sickness tiredness the lot. Started feeling okay around 11 weeks for a few days only to be hit with it all again. I am 15 weeks and have definitely come down with something. I have a full on blocked nose, sore throat, cough temperature the works. The phlegm is the reason i am constantly being sick.
I have been to the doctors as it has been almost TWO WEEKS since this has been happening and honestly just feel like it’s getting worser just for them to tell me its viral and i should just keep taking paracetamol.
Honestly i have tried all the home remedies and nothing is helping. It’s getting to the point now where my stomach is physically starting to hurt to much and cramp up. Which makes me think something is wrong with the baby?
I have just turned 15 weeks
Has anyone got any advice whatsoever because honestly i dont even know anymore

If it’s any consolation I’ve been sick for over a month now maybe 6 weeks with a cough, phlegm and sinuses just been awful and it’s not budging! I’m at a loss at what to do as well! I haven’t had back stomach pains but I know you can get constipation throughout pregnancy which I was given laxatives for at the beginning and I’ve also got inflammatory bowel disease so a bit different xx
I had similar I had an issue with my sinuses and was coughing up phlegm and was in a lot of pain with it. My doctor was very good and gave antibiotics as he said they don’t take any chances with pregnant people as your immune system is weaker. I would push for antibiotics stating it’s been 2 weeks with no improvement. Hope you feel better soon x
I would just keep going back, explain to them you would like the antibiotics as it’s been so long and there isn’t much harm in taking them as a one off if they are not needed. If you think something’s wrong then keep pestering them until your heard x
