OMG! I'm sick of coughing!!!

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

[babidevil]

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

Hollo - mine has turned into a chest infection now too its so awful !! Sick of coughing!

Codeine makes me very nauseous so i don't take it.

Can we have butter menthols?? They safe? I've had a couple for my throat.

Horseradish and Garlic tablets will help.

I asked the pharmacist recently about the garlic and horseradish in case I was pregnant and he consulted his book and said the horseradish is not -it promotes your period. It's 'safeness' may depend on where you are in pregnancy (?) so it may pay to check first.

But if you can my DH swears by them.

ah ok thanks girls.

I'm drinking OJ (freshly squeezed stuff) and going to bed early that should help oh and the vicks!!!

I hear you!!!! I have had a cough since 24 weeks pregnant, started with the dry type tickle then went to flem after about 6 weeks, went to the doc's after a few weeks, there was nothing they could do. Went back when it turned flemy and ended up on penicilllin, within 24 hours I felt like a new person. But as it always happens the kids got it and now I have it back again, I just am praying that it does'nt last as I am booked for a c-section in Sep and would hate to be coughing like that, then!!!! Yes I pulled muscles and was in absolute agongy, not to meantion my muscles just gave up on holding wee and the big dry retch and the supermarket cash register. Hope we all get over it soon 10 weeks is way to long to have varying degrees of coughing
