Been having this dry cough for 3-4 days, im in my second trimester. Scared to take anything on my own so i will ask my doctor, but just wanted to know what others safely did. Its keeping me up at night.
My amma made me warm turmeric milk and honey water for cough, it soothed the throat. These home things are gentle and safe. But for medicine, only take what ur gynac prescribes, never self medicate now.
For a mild cough warm water, a little honey with warm water, and ginger tulsi kadha helped me, all safe ghar ke nuskhe. But beta dont take any cough syrup on ur own, ask the doctor first. If it stays or u get fever, show the doc.
Please dont pick any syrup from the chemist yourself, in pregnancy thats risky. Warm fluids and steam are safe to start. If the cough is bad, with fever or breathing trouble, see ur doctor without delay.
Haan mere saath bhi hua tha, garam pani aur honey se kaafi aaram mila. Kadha bhi le sakti ho. But koi bhi syrup khud se mat lena na, doctor se hi poochna.
Steam inhalation and warm fluids, gargle with warm salt water, that usually settles a normal cough. Do not take any cough medicine without asking ur gynac, many arent safe in pregnancy. If it lingers more than a few days, get checked.
