I'm probably being way too neurotic. But I'm suffing from a really bad chest infection and I'm coughing like crazy. The kind of coughing that is making me get sick if I have a large coughing fit (sorry) So I'm worried I'm hurting my baby in some way. I'm 5 and a half months pregnant. Can't take much to relieve the pain and irritation of it all. (Doc says I can't even have a cough bottle). I know bubs is nicely cushioned in his or her amniotic fluid but surely my breathlessness, coughing and slight temp isn't doing any good. Anyone experience this before? Would really appreciate the advice. Thanks Lola x
i know its bad but one night when i was pregnant with my 2nd baby, must have been bout 7-8 months. i was coughing and couldnt get to sleep at all, so i smeaked a teaspoon full of my little boys cough medicine, he was 4 at the time. it done the job and i had a great sleep xx
Pretty sure bubs isnt getting any of the bad stuff :)
Try drinking hot squash or hot water with lemon and honey in it x
