    40 weeks pregnant with head cold - any suggestions?

    I'm looking for any suggestions to relieve symptoms of a head cold. I'm almost at 40 weeks so I'm being very cautious about what I take/do. I don't want to labour with this if possible coz I can't even clear my nose enough to breathe properly.
    Thanks in advance.

    A good homemade chicken soup (with garlic, ginger as well as the chicken and veg). Honey and lemon drink, steam to inhale (or a vaporiser), Vicks or Euchy Bear (on your throat/neck and feet as well), vit C, a probiotic....
