Hi Crunchy,
Have you tried a nice warm bath? I had a cold a few weeks ago (you probably saw me moaning about it on DIM Happy ) and a bath worked wonders for the congestion and the aches and pains. Just don't have it too hot.....
Hope you get better soon xxx

Oh,and if your throat is very sore try gargling with warm salt water. It's disgusting but it really works!

I spoke to my doctor lst week about what else I could take for migraine as paracetamol didn't do a thing!! He said I could take ibuprofen but there's risk of bleeding so I didn't bother. I think the risk gets higher the stronger the painkiller. Just rest lots and sleep lots!! x

You can check out the safety of various drugs in pregnancy on the website drugsafetysite.com, Factor A is the safest and safety decreases through the alphabet. (you can find the key on the website). You may find it gives too much information though as it lists as many studies and trials as it can find for each one, even when the results aren't statistically significant or aren't thorough enough to give reliable results.
