horrible sleep

I have ben really sick with a cold but last night it got worse. I kept coughing and couldn't sleep. I kept waking up to pee also it was overall a horrible sleep. Today I feel drain. I called my doctor and she said I could come in and she would check me and such but my appointment wasn't until next week. I kinda want to wait until next week since that was the scheduled. Do you think I should wait or go to my primary doctor instead to take care of this cold!?? Im on my 5week according to online calculators

Re: horrible sleep

since your problem is a cold, i would call your primary doctor instead of your OB since you havent met with them yet for the pregnancy.

the concern with seeing the OB to early is that they cannot see the sac/heartbeat etc and then it will worry you evne though it can be completely healthy - just too early

just tell your primary doctor you are pregnant when you speak with them. they will probably suggest tylenol as i dont think there is much else to take while pregnant

Re: horrible sleep

If you have a cold, there isn't really anything you can safely take aside from Tylenol and cough drops. Just drink a lot of fluids and rest. It sucks, but you have to tough it out. Feel better!
