Pregnancy Question
I am 19 weeks pregnant and I have a question. This past winter I started taking Echinacea (it strengthens your immune system) when I would feel a cold coming on. I'm starting to feel a bit of a summer cold coming on and I was wondering if anyone took Echinacea (or anything like it)while they were pregnant. If anyone has any fabulous cures for heading off a cold that would be appreciated too.
Ask the doctor
Personally I wouldn't recommend taking any type of medicine until you ask your OB. Many herbs are not safe during pregnancy and as you probably know there is a limited amount of things you can take while pregnant
