My doctor told me I can take any Tylenol product. If you are still unsure call your ob-gyn, they will let you know what is safe to take. I hope you feel better!

Take a hot steamy shower, and that will help your head cold, and help with the stuffy nose and sneezing. Stay in the shower, with the curtain sealed good on the sides.Get some apple cider, if you can stand it, it is actually pretty good that will help too. Take Tylenol. For the cough, you can eat some salt, but not to much, don't wanna run up your blood pressure, but it should help some with the coughing. And sleep in a reclined position, so the mucus won't choke you up. If you can stand to sleep that way, but it will help a lot if you can. I feel for you, we are working on baby #3, and I will be preggers though the winter, and I know I am gonna be needing to do some of these things, so good luck, and hope you get to feeling better.

Talk to your doctor about these, but I was told it was alright to take these:
Tylenol
Sudafed (the nasal decongestant, not the cold and sinus kind)
Good Luck!! I am also 14 weeks pregnant and have a cold, Sudafed has helped, especially at night when it was hard to sleep!!

drinking orange juice and eating lots of fruits helped me. If u happen to get a headache take some tylenol. the other cold medicines should be taken only if youre absolutely dying and have to take it, a little robitussin wont harm you.Halls is safe also.

This is the list the Dr gave me that has all the meds that are ok to take when your pregnant. Tylenol, Deconosal, Benadryl, Robitussin and Dimetapp OH and Sudafed. Those are all safe to take! Hope you feel better

Hi I'm 23 weeks pregnant and just getting over the flu. I couldn't take anything at all. I did have to go to the hospital to get fluids through an IV, so please drink lots of fluids. Keep a box of tissues handy as well. I know its tough and you're miserable but it will pass on its own.

When I was pregnant my doctors all told me I could take any form of Sudafed. Personally I don't think they work and recommend vicks cream vapo rub, chicken soup, lots of hot tea and warm fuzzy soft clothes curled up on the couch with a good book or movie. I hope you feel better soon.

Nothing really.
Treat a cold and it lasts a week - don;t treat a cold and it lasts seven days! Just drink plenty of fluids and live with it.

My Obstetrician gave me permission to take Robitussin and suck on cough drops(HALLS only! Not the herbal ones, just to be on the safe side.) You can drink decaf black and orange pekoe tea, or hot water with honey and lemon. If you have ANY questions, please first thing tomorrow(Monday) morning, call your OB's nurse and make sure it is okay. Don't just take my word for it.

Call the pharmacist, they will know. I know you can take Tylenol, but that wont help a ton. I would call them then send somebody to go get it for you.
