Sick while pregnant

I feel awful. Coughing, sneezing, sore throat, stuffy nose, ect.. Is there any point in going to the doctor? I probably can't take anything for it right? Or should I call my ob? Here's a time that I wish I wasn't pregnant so I can get my z-pack and feel better ugh

I would call your doctor.. Either one, primary care
Or OB. I've been sick twice this pregnancy and was given Amoxicillon.
I've also heard that z-packs are ok during pregnancy.
Doctor said not to take anything over the counter with a decongestant.
Feel better!

Re: Sick while pregnant

I'm sick now too...my OB yesterday told me I can take PLAIN Mucinex but I am always paranoid so I am not going to.

Besides that, drink warm water with fresh lemon slices, take vitamin C, breathe right strips help at night and a cool mist humidifier. Feel better :)

I had a really nasty cold for about 3 weeks. I went to see my primary and I was able to take antibiotics...and then my OB told me other OTC meds I was able to take. I say go to the doctor!!

Re: Sick while pregnant

I'm on zpak now for an ear infection (I get more than a 4 year old does!) - and also an Rx nasal spray. Call your doctor. As much as you may want to be puritanical about not using drugs, an infection that gets worse and more serious will put you in a much worse spot.
