Just having a bit of a whinge!!! I've had a cold with blocked nose and unproductive dry itchy cough for a week now and I'm just getting so sick of it... I'm getting hardly any sleep with all the coughing and I worry about the baby bouncing around in there !!! I've taken time off work but really should get back tomorrow, but I just don't seem to be any better than I was this time last week!!!!

I saw the GP last Tuesday and he prescribed "chicken noodle soup" - seriously !! He said he didn't want to give me any medication. Anyone had any success with preggie-friendly cough drops or a syrup or something?
