Been having this dry cough for 3-4 days and it gets worse at night, cant sleep properly. I dont want to take any medicine on my own in pregnancy. Any safe home remedy that helped you? will ask my gynac also.
I had a terrible dry cough in my second trimester and was so scared it would affect the baby. My doctor reassured me that babies are well protected. I just used honey-ginger juice and steam, and it got cured in a week.
Ah, that annoying cough that makes you feel like your baby is doing bungee jumping inside! 😂 Just stick to steam inhalation and warm water with honey. Skip the over-the-counter syrups unless your doc writes them down.
Don't pop any random cough syrups, they aren't safe right now. Gargle with warm salt water three times a day and drink ginger-tulsi tea. If the cough persists for more than 3 days or you get fever, go straight to your gynac.
Please drink warm water throughout the day and take steam twice. It will gently soothe your throat without any strong medicines. Take care of yourself.
My grandmother used to give me warm milk with turmeric and black pepper for cough. It really helps to soothe the throat. But if the cough is very strong, please ask your doctor for a safe syrup.
