Im in my 6th month and have a bad cough for few days now, har baar i cough zor se my whole pet shakes and im scared it harms the baccha inside. Is it ok or should i rush to doc?
I also panicked during my second trimester when I had a major coughing fit. But my gynac laughed and said the baby is just enjoying a little swing ride inside! It's completely normal, so don't worry.
I completely understand how terrifying it feels to cough hard, I used to hold my belly in panic thinking the baby would get hurt. It's so exhausting to worry constantly, but please know your little one is totally protected in there.
I am in my 20th week and have a bad dry cough right now. I feel my stomach muscles tightening when I cough, does anyone else feel this too? Is it safe?
Beta, drink warm water with a pinch of turmeric and honey, or do steam inhalation twice a day. Avoid cold water and outside food. But if the cough is very severe, do ask your doctor before taking any cough syrup.
Listen to me, your baby is completely safe inside a cushion of amniotic fluid. A simple cough won't harm the baby at all. Just rest well and drink warm water.
Try drinking warm ginger and honey water, it really helps soothe the throat. But if you get a high fever or difficulty breathing along with the cough, please consult your doctor immediately.
