Dry Cough

Hi mummies, I’m having dry cough which leads to lack of sleep at night. I only manage to sleep 2-3hours max cause i couldnt stop coughing. I tried drinking honey lemon water constantly but it doesnt really help at night. I went to the GP last week, the doctor gave me a cough suppressant meds & it doesnt work too. what should I do :( i’m trying to stay sane due to lack of sleep. please help. Thank you

Hoping for a child

Im 23w now. I had the same thing a month ago. Went to GP twice and cough didn’t get better within a week. Went to gynae too and was put on another type of cough meds. Most likely mild bronchitis and doctors say it could last a few weeks. Mine went away in around 3. Just rest well, hydrate more and continue taking the meds. It will pass!

Drink plenty of water with lemon or chamomile tea, get prospan cough syrup instead, put a vicks at ur back, throat and lay sleep side ways.
