    Hey all,
    I'm 12 weeks pregnant and have just got the mother of all colds! This was one of my questions to ask my doc but I won't her for another week so I'd be grateful if anyone could share what they know. I heard before that cough syrup/painkillers/lemsips are not allowed...is this true? I know I'm probably being over-cautious but don't wanna do anything that might cause any harm. At the same time, I'd love to get rid of this headache before work tomorrow :)

    Thanks!

    Paracetemol are ok to take, not sure about the rest, but honey and lemon in some hot water are just as good if not better than lemsip.
    Hope you feel better soon.

    Paracetemol unless you have the advice of your doctor. And we can't give medical advice here so thread closed.
