Soak in a hot bath with ginger for 15 minutes then rinse off in the shower.  Wear warm clothes like sweats or flannels.  You will feel almost 100% better tomorrow night.

Besides the Robitussin I drank orange juice & rubbed myself down w/ vicks vapor rub. It helped! I also used a dehumidifier.

When I first got pregnant , a week before I found out I had a really bad stomach ache and I took gravel I don't know if its recommended, but if it isn't I didn't have any problems with my son he came out fine. If you live in Canada call tel-health

My doctor prescribed me Robitussin with a small amount of codeine to help me sleep through the night and because I had a cough that was so hard it pulled at some nerve in my stomach and was very painful and it worked wonders for mr. it was better than any cold medicine I tried over the counter.I was feeling better in three days.

I  had the flu myself and dr told me rubittusin dm, claritin d, and cough drops were ok to take. Oh and tylenol reg for fever. If you get a fever higher than 100.3 you need to go to er. I hope you feel better. Im bearly recuperating myself from it.
