Relax. I see nothing in this product that would place the baby at risk.

The incident you described is not of any concern to you or your baby. For the sake of your and your baby's health, you should be under the care of a doctor. Please establish contact with an obstetrician for antenatal care. Wish you good health and a healthy baby!

This is a very good choice for you. Of all the treatments, saline nose drops are the safest treatment you could pick, followed by a steamy shower which would be my second choice. Swallowing saline drops is nothing to worry about for you or your baby. You would get more salt in chicken soup.
