Stuck with this irritating dry cough for almost a week now, im in 5th month. dont want to take any random medicine without asking doc. is there some safe home remedy that worked for you all? please suggest.
Warm fluids, honey in warm water, steam and rest help a lot for a small cough. Stay hydrated. Important thing, dont pick any syrup off the shelf yourself, lot of them arent for pregnancy, call your gynac for the safe one.
Home things like steam and honey water are safe to try. But if the cough is bad, lasts long, or comes with fever or breathlessness, please dont wait it out, see your doctor. In pregnancy i never took any medicine without asking.
Beta for a mild cough, warm water with a little honey, and steam inhalation usually soothe the throat. Gargle with warm salt water too. But please dont take any cough syrup on your own, only what the doctor allows in pregnancy.
Haan i had a cough in my pregnancy too, the haldi wala warm milk and steam gave me good relief. Gargle bhi karo. Bas koi bhi syrup khud se mat lo, doctor se hi poochna which one is okay.
