I wouldn't take anything unless it is really bad. If it is a cold, I would just wait until it goes away. If you HAVE to have something, drink organic herbal teas. Very good for you and your baby!

I've heard that pregnant women should not take any medicine, unless given to her by a doctor. My aunt would drink hot tea with honey when she had a cold, so maybe try that.

if possible, nothing, only herb tea and other natural products. But when I had a high fever during pregnancy, I took a couple of paracetamol tablets. just that u should reduce the dosage and dilute the medicine with lots of water (mix, I mean)

The best are teas and natural beverages like the ones made with pineapple, oranges, lemons, limes,grapefruit for the high % of vitamin C. If I was call I also call my gynecologist.

I was given a list of over-the-counter meds that you can take - and the one listed for a cold was Sudafed (regular strength).

Afrin nasal spray but only for a short period, and Tylenol. Otherwise steam showers for congestion. That's what my MD let me take.

This is really a question you need to ask a doctor.
My unprofessional opinion is that you have to live with cough drops, tea, and chicken rice soup - but that's just me.
