Been coughing since 4-5 days and its so annoying, cant sleep properly. Dont want to take random medicine in pregnancy. Any safe home remedy that actually worked for u?
Having a history of PCOS made me extra cautious about every single symptom during my pregnancy. I stuck to safe remedies like warm water gargles and steam, and avoided any self-medication until my doctor explicitly approved it.
With my thyroid issues during pregnancy, I had to be very careful with any extra medication. I suggest doing salt-water gargles and warm steam, but definitely follow up with your doctor before taking any fast-relief syrups.
Oh, having a cough when you are already carrying so much weight is just the most exhausting thing, I really feel for you. When I was pregnant, coughing made me feel so anxious about the baby, but warm water with a little honey really helped soothe my throat.
Haan yaar, pregnancy mein cough sach mein dimaag kharab kar deta hai! You can try drinking warm water with ginger and honey, but koi bhi cough syrup doctor se pooche bina mat lena, na?
While home remedies like steam inhalation and warm ginger water can give temporary relief, it's really best to consult your doctor before taking any cough syrups. Many over-the-counter cough medicines are not safe during pregnancy.
I'm in my 5th month right now and struggling with a dry cough too! I've been doing steam inhalation and gargles, but does anyone know if drinking warm turmeric milk is completely safe in the second trimester?
I had a terrible cough in my second trimester and panicked thinking the pressure of coughing would hurt the baby. But my doctor reassured me that the baby is perfectly safe inside, and suggested simple steam inhalation which cleared it up in a few days.
