Been having this annoying dry cough for 4-5 days, im 28 weeks and dont want to take any random medicine. The coughing also pulls at my pet which feels weird. Any safe gharelu nuskha that worked for u?
I understand how exhausting a cough can be, especially when you want to protect your little one. You can safely try warm water gargles with salt and steam inhalation. Please be very gentle with your body and rest well.
Since pregnancy makes our immune system weak, even a simple cough can drag on. I had severe complications in my pregnancy, so I suggest not taking any over-the-counter syrups. Please consult your gynac for a safe prescription.
Steam inhalation twice a day and sipping warm water really helps soothe the throat naturally. However, if your cough is very dry, hurts your tummy, or you have a fever, please contact your doctor immediately.
My pregnancy app suggested keeping a humidifier in the room and doing warm saline gargles, which actually helped me sleep better. Keep tracking your symptoms, and if you get a fever along with the cough, do alert your doctor.
Looking back, catching a cold was so annoying during pregnancy! Warm water with a bit of honey and ginger worked wonders for my throat. Hang in there, it will pass and soon you'll be too busy with your toddler to remember this!
Oh, coughing with a heavy pregnant belly is a full-body workout you didn't sign up for! Try warm turmeric milk or honey ginger water. Just make sure to cross your legs when you cough, if you know what I mean! 😉
