It's been almost 3 years since I've had any decent cold medicine, since in that time I've been either pregnant, nursing, or both. I finally came down with the cold that is kicking everyone's ass at work, and last night I started desperately searching the internet for validation that I could take Nyquil. No dice. It's an L4, the sedative is the

We were sick on Christmas last year and it sucked. Tom was in the ER on Christmas eve they were trying to break is almost 104 fever. He ran a fever 102+ for 5 days. It was such crap.

Just relax and rest.

Do you have a netti pot? take some regular cold medicine if you can. I'm not a nyquil fan I wake up feeling worse when I take it lol.

Feel better bb!

Well I'm glad this is just a cold, then. No fever, I just feel like absolute crap. And it's all in my chest now, so my throat hurts and my voice is about gone. I sound real classy. :)

I would love some cold meds, but sadly everything will either kill my supply or hurt the baby. I have heard good things about those netti pots, though. Maybe I shoud get me one.

If you are coughing try getting some plain mucinex (not d) it'll help clear your chest up faster. It should be safe for infants since they have some for kids. The regular stuff shouldn't decrease ur supply. Netti pot and saline spray (hot tea with honey as well). Also chicken soup or some kind of broth will loosen any congestion in your head. I always make stew when I'm sick like that. :)
