Allergies While Pregnant
Hello,I am seven months pregnant and for the last month have been congested and experiencing symptoms of a cold. I believe I started getting allergies, which I never have before.
I am congested with a runny nose, sneezing and watery eyes. Any change in temperature, along with any wind or draft makes me sneeze.
I tried Hyland's allergy treatment, along with Lycopodium 30c, pulsatilla and hystaminum, to no avail.
Please give me some suggestions!

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Please STOP using remedies on your own.
My advise is:
Drink ginger tea for 1-2 times a day for 1-2 days
(cut 1-2 small stirps of fresh ginger and put in a cup of boiling water, let it cool to your preference and drink it, leave the ginger)
Drink a mixture of manuka honey+fresh lemon+warm water
(1 tablespoon manuka honey+half regular sized lemon+2 cups of warm water of your liking). Sip it slowly, once a day for 3 days.
Report back with symptoms after doing this.
If needed, I will select one single remedy for your allergies.
Unless absolutely necessary, please avoid using any medicine, be it homeopathic.

Hello fitness,
Thank you for your response. I did what you suggested for three days. However, on the third day, all my symptoms returned.
I am again congested, runny and itchy nose, sneezing, watery eyes. It seems like my symptoms get better, and then worse about every three days.
Please suggest something to help! Thanks.

Hi, something that may help you out here, is get
a saline sterilized nose spray. One that has no
medications in it- use this as often as needed bc
it will wash the pollen, dust out of your nose and then
the membranes will not stay irritated.
When the membranes become irritated they create
mucous and then mucous starts to make the
nose- sinus more vulnerable to germs , it is a cycle and this is a simple way to clear out the allergens for
now. Stops the cycle. Would also be good to get an
air cleaner with hepa filter and keep that in your bedroom
with windows shut, bc it will allow you to regain energy
when you sleep.

congestion and runny nose with sneezing every couple of days on and off for a month.
Began at six months pregnant after a cold.
I can't figure out what's better or worse, but seems that air blowing from a window or air conditioner makes it worse.
no other problems emotionally or physically.
