but im gettin a cold and was wondering is it safe to drink them Lemsip Max cold and flu thingys?

[Liz]

If the only medication in it is paracetamol, it should be fine You can always ring a pharmacy and ask.

Regular Limsip is definately ok, i had it when i was sick while pregnant.. as to the other one, like the others have said, just depends on the ingredients.

[Alan]

You can take any lemsip apart from flu-strength. Just check that it does not contain pseudoephedrine

I have a cold too, and have found great relief in a lemon water. Cut off skin of whole lemon, slice, put into jug, pour hot water onto lemon, then fill with cold water. Slowly sip. Yummy. (My mum would add a bit of honey too!)
I've been mildly using the Fess nasal spray before bed to clear my nose and enable some sleep. If I get a headache I use paracetomol, but not often....

Jessie - at your stage if there are any problems you should be calling the birthing suites - not going into the emergency clinic.
When I had severe, severe ligament pains at 18w with my last baby, I went to the emergency ward at 7am, and ended up waiting for 4hrs for them just to check that the baby was OK.
Had I gone upstairs they would have looked after me straight away.
From 30w the midwives at your hossy are going to be so much better for your mental state than the emergency ward, so just keep that in mind if you have any problems again. I should imagine one of the first things they would do is put a doppler/CTG on you to make sure its all OK.
