Re: what meds to avoid?

You *could* avoid anything with a warning on the package about consulting your doctor if you're pregnant or breastfeeding......

But, I don't believe you will do any harm if you take an OTC cold medicine before you could even know you are PG.

I don't know. I could be wrong - I'm still new at this. Someone more knowledgeable may have a better answer.

You can also try using a neti-pot or saline rinse to help w/the congestion - both are safe since they just use a saline solution.
