Flu at 15 wks: If your "flu symptoms" began after the 12th week of pregnancy, and the influenza virus was documented as the cause, with mild temperature elevation, most "remedies" for the cough, etc., should be discussed with your OB physician, but the best advice is to do nothing else, as the disease is self limited.
