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

You poor thing - there's nothing worse than being sick when pg. When I was about 22 weeks I got a throat and chest infection. The best thing for the throat is to gargle salt water. I know it sounds horrible and like an old wives tales but I swear within a couple of days your sore throat will be gone.

Hope you feel better soon.

Hope you feel better soon Ren. Big hugs I agree with the warm salt water gargle. Is a safe "antiseptic/antiviral". You could also try ease a cold lozenges which are safe in pregnancy. Paracetamol 2 tablets 4 times a day is safe for pain and fever.
Oh yeah, and a big YES for chicken soup It truly helps. Get well soon.
