Can i have warm honey water in pregnancy for cough?
Caught a bad cough and dont want to take medicines unnecessarily. My mom suggested warm honey water. Im in 2nd trimester, is it safe to take na? anyone tried.
Warm honey water is generally safe, but please don't ignore a persistent cough as it can strain your abdominal muscles. Since I had a high-risk pregnancy, my doctor always told me to check before taking any home remedies. Please consult your doctor if it doesn't clear up.
While honey and warm water is fine, please check with your gynac before taking any home remedies or over-the-counter cough syrups. Safe to be sure when you are pregnant, so a quick call to the clinic is best.
I felt so miserable when I got a cough in my second trimester, and warm water with a spoon of honey was the only thing that gave me peace. It felt so soothing for my throat without taking any heavy medicines. Hope you feel better soon.
Yes, absolutely! Honey water is like the holy grail of pregnancy-safe remedies, unless you're trying to sweet-talk your way out of a diet. It's totally safe and much better than blindly popping cough syrups.
I have a mild cold right now and was thinking of trying honey water too! Did your doctor say it's okay, or are you just trying home remedies first? Let me know if it works.
