I'm getting a cold/flu... how can I feel better?? 28 weeks pg

[Shanti]

Oooohhhh!! It sucks being sick when pregnant because I can't take anything

Today I woke up with a headache and slightly dry throat and thought "oh no..." went to work and gradually started feeling crappier and crappier.....

Got some Vit C powder from the chemist, bought some oranges and other fruit and came home had a hot shower and put on my socks and went to bed..... I feel CR@P

My throat is really hurting now..... can anyone recommend what they do when sick with the cold or flu and pregnant? I don't want to eat my dinner because it hurts when i swallow!!

Are there any hot lemon drinks I can take? This is the first time i"ve been sick while pregnant and not able to take anything for it
I'm not normally a sook when sick because I know i can take anything but as i'm pregnant I can't!! Grrrr hate being sick.
