A member asked:

How can i get better from a cold quickly? im 36 weeks pregnant and i just want to get better asap. need all the energy for labour. feeling frustrated

Time: It depends if your cold is caused by a bacteria or a virus. Viruses can take up to 14 days to run their course. You should see your doctor to determine if you need antibiotics. And believe me, when you are in labor your body will help you get energy! In the mean time, just rest. It will be your best therapy until you can see your doctor.
