    Dear ILs

    i am approx 20 weeks pregnant. i m suffering from running nose and little sore throat since last night. i have come across many home remedies for curing this on indus ladies. But, i m scared of trying anything due to pregnancy. i am taking steam with vicks, warm milk with turmeric and doing gargling with little hot water with salt.Pls suggest as i dont want to take any medicine from clinic/doctor.

    Hi rachna

    congrats on your pregnancy dear..

    well i gave birth 6 months ago ; i always took vitamin c (from first month onwards that helped to reduce flu/cough)

    if u have rocksugar try to take with little bit of "tulsi" boil tulsi n add rocksugar - to ease cough.. this will sure relive u from flu.

    try to include more fruits n vege to ur diet ( helps in preventing common cold)


    if u are coughing (try not to bend too low or press ur tummy hard)
    all the best rachna...

    Hi Rachna

    If you are a non-vegetarian you can take chicken/bone soups. Otherwise, hot veg soup will also help to relieve cold. I doubt whether steaming with vicks or any other vaporizer is good during pregnancy. When I was pregnant, elders advised me not to do that.

    Tak care... Get well soon..

    a teaspoon of honey (raw honey is best) and a 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon powder will usually knock out a cold within a day or two? Take twice a day for 3 days for best results. Both honey and cinnamon are antiviral, antibacterial, and antifungal.
