Guest guest Posted March 16, 2004 Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 I have a cold, I guess. I have had that feeling in my nose, in my nasal cavity, of cold tingles, and I have been sneezing. At first I thought it was allergies, and it might be, but earlier I had a temp of 101F and then I took it again a few hours later and it was at 98.8F(my temp is nomrally in the 95-96F range) I don't know what can cause a temp to spike and then go down, but I didn't take anything. I feel horrid, and now I am nauseous. I took some triaminic(sp?), just because it was there and I have nothing else. But do y'all know of anything that could help. Anything for a nursing mom for allergies? Anything for nausea? Anything for ear stuffiness? **NOTE: I AM EXCLUSIVELY NURSING AN 8 MONTH OLD** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 16, 2004 Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 Hi, I am up with the same symptoms, but I don't know if my action plan can be used while nursing. My stuff came on all of sudden today and it just snowed again here. I don't know if it's related. I drank some Peppermint Tea for my stomach, Personal Steamer with Eucalyptus Oil for my sinuses and a few drops of Peroxide (approx 2) in each ear and closed off with cotton balls. I also gargled with some Baking Soda. It try to sleep or lie down on my stomach so the mucous runs out instead of back into my head. This might sound like overkill but I'm prone to pneumonia and I refuse to be forced on IV antibiotics again. I hope someone else is awake soon because I don't know if any of this is good while nursing. Hope you feel better soon, mjd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
