I had this for a couple of weeks and tbh i dont think there is anything you can do to stop it. Maybe some sniffy oil?

Not much you can do. Try a humidifier.

i don't know what that could be, have you got hayfever? i take a nasal spray for when i get my blocked nose from hayfever.

the other day i had a cold though and it went away in 3 days because i ate oranges and lemons

I have had my nose blocked the most of the time but bothing much u can do

 

[KiwiMOM]

[Laniinthesky]

Try filling the sink with steaming hot water and standing/sitting with your face over it; putting a towel over the back of your head to keep the steam just near your face is also a good idea; it helps clear it up. If that fails you can always cook something with curry i it (though dont eat it!) and smell the curry

Why shouldn't she eat it?

It's perfectly safe to eat curry in pregnancy. x

Well I personally would avoid heartburn the best way I can; but each to their own

Unfortunately Stuffy nose/Blocked nose is common in pregnancy something to do with hormone changes .I agree with the steamy water method and air humidifier

Didn't think of that! I luckily didn't get heartburn and craved curry

 

[Laniinthesky]

I have an annoying soar throat lemon tea and honey just isnt quiet working as much for me =/

 

[Shaunagh]

On Tuesday/Wednesday i got that! Like its blocked but theres nothing in there?
On Thursday it turned into a cold and im constantly blowing my nose Apparently colds are pretty common in pregnancy. Feel better soon!

you can take some cough drops, just not the anti-inflammatory ones. I try to take one only when I'm desperate but pre-pregnancy I always had one when my throat was sore. I also stocked up on popsicles

 

[Laniinthesky]

I decided on a hot bubble bath with that vix stuff in.......It worked for a good few hours i dont think having a bath several times a day will please my mum when she gets the bills through though
