Caught a cold past two days and now a little cough also started. Im 11 weeks and worried if all this coughing can affect the baby somehow. Not taking any medicine, just steam for now. Should i be concerned?
A normal cold is not harmful to baby, but it feels miserable when you are already tired. I did steam, warm water and lots of rest. If fever comes or cough gets bad, dont take random meds, call your doctor.
My gynac said a simple cold usually doesnt affect the baby, our body fights it. But she warned me not to take any cough syrup without asking, some are not safe. So I always called before taking anything.
Beta, for mild cold haldi doodh and warm tulsi water helped in our family. Rest well and keep warm. But if there is high fever or breathing trouble, go to the doctor at once, dont delay.
