    I had it last pregnancy, and again this one. It settled last time after ds was born, so fingers crossed again.
    I just make sure dh stands on my left side, only right side is affected, and lowing my head below horizontal helps.

    lolz, thanks goodness it settled down! I find the horizontal move helps too, so did you use any decongestant nasal sprays or anything like rhinocort or did you just live with it? Was it the whole pregnancy or just the last trimester?

    Lived with it, and it has been the entire pregnancy with both (well I've only just hit third trimester with this one!)
    I'm wary of using nasal sprays because I have really weak blood vessels in my nose, and nose bleeds are on my list of things I really dislike since living with them since I can remember

    ugh... yeah, am nearly 35 weeks here and trying to decide whether to start on this new decongestant spray or wait it out .... you surviving the whole pregnancy and now being up to your third trimester with nothing is making think that maybe I could try to go without sprays for a while..... you sound like a strong woman Well done!!!!!!!!!!!
