I'm 16 weeks pregnant and bunged up with a cold. can i take otrivine to help me sleep?

Cold in pregnancy: may be safe but if you want to ensure safety while treating nasal congestion, consider hypertonic nasal saline rinse. these kits are sold at more pharmacies. diphenhydramine (Benadryl) is sedating and safe in pregnancy for short term use and may also help you sleep.
