NPR: Anything I can take? I feel like I'M coming down with something.

And I DON'T want to get sick! :(

I was doing so good..

We had a house full of viruses, ear infections, strep, colds and now my head feels clouded but I don't wanna get sick. :(

Zinc lozenges have been working for me all winter. You take them every few hours as soon as you feel the slightest hint of anything-- it usually stops it before it becomes a full fledged cold. So far I only caught 1 of the 1,235,434 colds my DS brought home from preschool this year.

I do too!

Also, drink lots of fluids and try to get some rest.

It's amazing what a little extra sleep will do.

I hope you feel better!Chat Icon

I felt something coming on last week and started taking tylenol, sudafed, mucinex, vit c and zinc. I had a really bad cold, that lasted almost 2 months, in the middle of my pregnancy, and I was miserable. I certainly did not want to feel like that again, especially having my lo around, so I loaded up and it has not been that bad at all.
Feel better.Chat Icon

Zinc is good too- but just a warning- do NOT take it on an empty stomach.
OH BOY!
