HOME REMEDY FOR COLD DURING PREGNANCY
Avoid taking decongestant!!!
Prevent is better than cure...
For Prevention:
Stay away from anyone who has a cold, if possible.
Wash your hands often, and after you have been around someone who has a cold.
Ask those around you to practise the "catch it, bin it, kill it" routine. People with a cold should catch coughs and sneezes in a tissue, throw it away, and wash their hands.
Wash your hands if you’ve picked up a dirty tissue.
Clean surfaces in your home and your office space often.
Avoid sharing cutlery, cups or plates with someone who has a cold.
Avoid sharing towels – use your own, or use paper towels to dry your hands.
HOME REMEDY:
stuffy nose is a nuisance and you can try inhaling steam or using a salt water nasal spray. Or you can ask your pharmacist to recommend a vapour rub that is safe in pregnancy. Taking paracetamol may also help to relieve a runny or blocked nose.
