cold help

I started feeling junky yesterday and woke up even worse today. Sinus and head cold. Runny nose and sore throat. I am 8 weeks pregnant. Any suggestions for relief? Can you take cold meds (I assume no)?

You can also take Benadryl.

Tylenol and saline nasal spray are about your only options. You can try warm, caffiene free tea with honey for the sore throat. Lots of orange juice for the vitamin C to boost your immune system. Plenty of water to stay hydrated. Warms showers; the humidity and steam will help your throat and sinuses.
Hope you feel better soon!
