My nose has been blocked for over a week now n its so annoying, cant sleep properly. I dont want to take any random medicine without asking. How did you ladies get some relief safely?
Stuffy nose in pregnancy is super common because of extra blood flow. Steam, saline rinse and a humidifier in the room are your safe friends. Skip the over-the-counter cold meds, ask the doctor first because some arent ok in pregnancy.
Pregnancy congestion is so annoying, mine lasted weeks. Steam inhalation morning and night helped me a lot, plus a saline nasal spray which is safe. Keep ur head raised with an extra pillow at night. Dont take any cold medicine without asking ur gynac though.
Beta garam paani ki bhaap lo, thoda haldi wala doodh raat ko, aur warm soup. Ye sab safe hai. Lekin koi bhi dawai bina doctor ke mat lena, pregnancy mein careful rehna padta hai.
Steam, saline drops and lots of warm fluids, that's what got me through both times. Avoid random decongestant tablets, many arent advised in pregnancy. If it comes with fever or u feel really unwell, call ur doc.
