Normally I have 1 cold a year, if that, I've had 3 in the last 6/7 months and each time it takes ages for it to go away! :wall: :wall:

Paracetamol seems to be helping so far and I just feel a bit woozy. Does anyone have any pregnancy safe remedies that's worked for them?

On the upside, I'm off work (again, I'd just gone back after 2 and a half weeks of being off sick with tiredness :wall: ) so I'm going to catch up on ALL of the posts on PF!! :cheer:
 
Colds are a real pain :hug:

Before getting pregnant I was never ill and couldnt remember the last time I had a cold but I have had 2 so far.

One thing that did work for me that was recommended to me by FIL was to drink a cup of oxo with lots of pepper in.

Crumble an oxo into a mug with loads of pepper and drink. It really perked me up and made me feel ten times better, worth a try?

Hope you start to feel better soon :hug:
 
Hmmm oxo and pepper? Wonder why that works, but doesn't it taste :puke: ?? I'm sure I'd be :puke: after drinking it but it's gotta be worth a try!

Glad to know I'm not the only one who's had colds in pregnancy and rarely before! :hug: thanks!! :hug:
