I felt a cold coming on a couple of days ago and tried drinking lots of orange juice (which I hate) and getting a lot of sleep. Well this cold hit me full blown last night. I can;t stop sneezing and coughing and my head is pounding. Last night I just kept eating freezies (they felt nice going down my throat) but ... What can I take???? Is there any cough syrups I can take???

Go to the pharmacy. The pharmacist will help you out. I was really sick a couple weeks ago and he told me to take cough syrop (the essaim brand). They are there to help :)

They can help to. I always thought that you weren't allowed to talk anything. But according to a mini guide that my doc gave me..It's ok. You just need to let the pharmacist know your symptoms and that you are pregnant. Vive infosanté! Hehe

so the clsc told me to call the pharmacist and she said I could take benadryl or robitussin but for coughs only.. Not for cold and cough or fever and cough. Just the ones for coughs. And halls, but halls never work on me. So I will take some cough syrup tonight. Not too much just a bit, to help before bed. !!
