So I developed a cold the last few days. It started as a bad sore throat from being around a smoker then turned into a nasty stuffy runny nose. I read online that nasal congestion is actually a pregnancy symptom and is triggered when the nasal passageway becomes irritated. I'm hoping this is just a cold!
If it's not a cold, it will last about 6 WEEKS. If it is a cold, it should go away within a week. I can't take any medication for it since it's all terrible while pregnant. Ugh! I guess it occurs in about 30% of all pregnancies and usually anytime in the pregnancy, from first trimester to third. I read the hormone imbalances cause your body to over react to the irritants.
Please be a cold! I don't think I could take 6 weeks of this!! Bring on the morning sickness instead! Oh no, what if I get BOTH! How terrible! lol. I had no morning sickness with my first pregnancy, I'm hoping this one is the same!
