Pregnancy Rhinitis?
I’ve had a really stuffy blocked nose for about a week now accompanied by some horrible sneezing.
I’ve been reading about pregnancy rhinitis but am I too early for it to be this, I’m 11wks+1d.
I’ve tried to call my midwife this week about other things and was going to bring this up but they’ve not got back to me yet ahaha.

I had it in very early pregnancy, it did get better over time, think it was gone by 20 weeks
I had this on and off throughout my entire pregnancy, so annoying! I was using Otrivine once every night before bed in my last trimester because otherwise I was too stuffy to sleep. It was REALLY effective, but be careful not to use it too much. My midwife said once a day should be fine, just not all day every day
I had this from about 12w, went away in the third trimester but I can say it got easier over time
I was prescribed steroid sprays by the GP which calmed down the inflammation and now I can manage with the saline spray
Sorry! I had this as well but I also had hay fever so getting hay fever tablets helped but speak to your go not all otc are suitable for pregnancy x
I had this from week 7 until about week 20
