A member asked:
Can i use anything besides saline drops if i have a cold and am in first trimester?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: There are homeopathic remedies that are safe while pregnant. There are chinese herbs that are safe (see a practitioner tho). Saline is a great choice as it keeps the swelling down in your nose and mucous clearing.
