you can get hot water honey and lemon and then get a disperible paracetamol in it. Its like a pregnancy safe lemsip!

The problem is i don't like lemon i never have done. I think its deffo a cold coming.
My eyes keep watering at the mo an keep getting sniffles so might aswell say ive got a cold.
i dont usually get colds or bugs feel so down now days i seem to be getting everything lately xx

Hey

I sent the other half to our corner shop the other day and said if he didn't come back with something I could take for my sore throat I don't know what i'd do!! lol!

I've been taking Lockets. There's a note on the back of the wrapper saying that there are no side affects to pregnant women. Only prob is they're in Lemon and Honey flavour...suppose anything's better than nothing. I hate lemon but if you can stomach 5 mins of a nasty taste it's worth it.

He also bought some soothers, I read the ingredients to see if there was anything harmful but to my knowledge there's nothing - best call Mars about them though as was no warning.

Good luck in shifting your cold! Mine only lasted 5 days so don't worry!

Xx

I'm certain you can take sugar free strepsils hun.
Anyway I've noticed this thread is a few days old so I hope everything is ok or you've found a remedy to help.
