I also agree with Amy.  My uncle is a chiropractor and would always adjust us when we were sick...and I had him do it to my son once when I thought he was coming down with another ear infection and it did seem to lessen his symptoms...

Go to the Chiropractor.  Seriously!  My father in law who's a pharmacist and does not agree with Chiropractics said that's the one thing there good for.  He also said antibiotics don't really do that much for ear infections either.

Chiropractors adjust a bone in your neck area that once it's back in place it allows the liquid to drain and you can get better much quicker.  We've taken our son every time he's gotten an ear infection and he was fine the next day!  

Chiropractics are also safe (and even encouraged) during pregnancy.  So don't let that scare you away.  It's better than taking any kind of medication.  

I hope you feel better soon!

I would call your primary MD and ask them.  I had a bad sinus infection during the 2ww when I got my bfp and I was a nervous wreck but miserable so he told me that the antibiotic he gave me was safe to take while pregnant or during the ovulation phase, etc.  I was SO SO scared to try it but being sick and having an infection isn't good for the baby either...  I'm sorry you are sick....
