Currently down with covid and 23 weeks pregnant. Gynae gave green signal to take lonzenges, yellow flu tablet and normal panadol for fever, flu and sore throat. I am still having cough and flu. Any natural remedies that i can look into to cure cough and flu?

Manuka Honey helped instantly every night for dry cough . I got the brand Comvita.

Im currently around 17 weeks. Can i go for feet massage at the normal massage parlour?

I wouldn’t recommend as most masseur are not trained to perform on preggos (eg to avoid any ‘point’) Any wrong point may risk triggering labour. If you really need one, try to check with those centres which does prenatal massages and see if they provide foot massages. :)

Prunes for constipation

Hi currently 6 weeks pregnant and going through constipation. Is it safe to eat prunes?

Super Mum

Prunes and prune juice are a safe way of combating this issue. Potassium in prunes is known to reduce high blood pressure and act as a natural anti-depressant as anxiety levels can be extremely high during pregnancy.

Gestational sac

Hi went for scan. Im around 5w5days. Doc could only see the gestational sac and nothing else. Do you think its still early? Called up a few gynae clinics and was informed that 5 weeks is still very early. Gynae Docs in hospital usually accepts patients only when they are around 8 weeks and above in order to see the yolk sac and heartbeat. Anyone experience this before?

Yes still very early. I exp it before. Can only see the sac and was told to come for next appt in 2 weeks times.
