The thing is my nose is CONSTANTLY stuffed. Nose spray helps..but you are only supposed to use for 3 days..and I've been using for 3 months. Saline Spray does NOTHING..Breathe right..nothing. I don't think I can go another 4 months like this...I really can't breathe at all and breathing through my mouth is just horrible!!! There has to be another way..unless I tie an onion to my nose...

Re: Can you use Sudafed while pregnant???
my nose has been stuffed up for 7 months, I just learned to deal with it. Its a PG issue and nothing really "Safe" to take.
I use Afrin when its really bad and I cant sleep or breathe..
My Dr said NO to Sudafed.

Re: Can you use Sudafed while pregnant???
My nose has been stuffed up since I saw the BFP, it's just a normal pg thing to be congested. It goes away right after you give birth.
Now I have seasonal allergies, and for that my doc ok'd zyrtec, sudafed or benadryl.
Honestly, I don't take anything unless i really have too, i hate taking meds.
