TAAV Mentholaire vapouriser when pregnant

[Lukesmum]

This morning I woke up with a shocking cold (hope its not swine flu). It is mainly a head cold at the moment but my nose is so blocked I can't breath at all. My eyes are continously watering and my head is pounding. I am 30 weeks pregnant. I was wondering if anyone knows if it is ok to use TAAV Mentholaire vapouriser fluid in a vapouriser when pregnant? The ingredients are

Eucalyptus Oil 100mg
Menthol 97.6mg
Methyl Salicylate 13mg
Camphor 5.9mg
Propylene Glycol 600mg
Ethanol (alcohol) 225mg

I have googled it but can't find any info.

I was advised to use a vapouriser when I came down with a cold at around 32wks while pg with ds, have also advised expectant mothers to use as a pharmacy assistant.
As far as Im aware its safe.
Hope you get better real soon and its not swine flu!

If in doubt don't I say, I think I have heard somewhere you can't.

Also for an alternative try getting 100% eucalyptus oil- that's got to be a better alternative anyway.

HTH...sorry not really sure

Thanks heaps for your replies. I didn't use it last night but have just been to the dr and he said it is ok to use.

He also said I can use vicks on my chest. I hope that's ok....

I started to panic a bit last night because bub didn't move like usual. I didn't feel any movement all night and then only one tiny one this morning. Dr checked heartbeat and all is fine so that is good. I just have to rest up and try and get better.
