    Thanks girls. It's one of those dry irritating coughs where it feels itchy my poor belly and ribs feel a bit bruised!!! Glad it can't hurt bubs though thanks.

    I'm going to try the Vicks on the feet tonight with socks (i wear socks to bed anyway) so that hopefully should work! Thanks! I have in the past rubbed it on my chest but then it stains my singlets/clothes!!

    Oooh good hint about the vicks - have to try that here cos I'm coughing my lungs out all the time too (and nothing has happened Ren, so I wouldn't worry, I think they are tucked up pretty nice and cosy inside)

    Can you take codeine? Its very good at stopping the spasming coughs. I had whooping cough last year so i know what you mean about being sick of coughing!! I was also sick of DH complaining about it LOL

    Do you know anyone that has a asthma spray? It is safe to use as I asked my doctor....it helps get rid of that annoying cough that lingers after having a cold....if not try a cough suppressant with codine in it....but make sure u tell the chemist your pregnant
