    Flippin coldsore

    I got them in both my pregnancies. My body was just run down. I carried on using Zovirax didn't realise you shouldn't at the time.

    I get them, one the flip side your bubba gets lots of your immunity to the virus. On the downside they suck!

    I've found that Witch Hazel solution is great at clearing them up in a few days without them hurting much at all. I use this on my Hemroids too when I get them while pregnant.

    Yeah Zovirax is an unknown during pregnancy. There hasn't been enough people use it over enough time for them to say it is safe like other medications.

    Can you take LLysine? If not able to take, you can make it into a paste and put on the coldsore to dry it out.
