Actually, I have really bad allergies, and get sinus infections…I am well versed in the sinus meds during pregnancy. Of course any medications should be taken as little as possible…however, it is safe to take sudafed while you are pregnant. any version of it is fine as well. even the sudafed PE. I checked and double checked with my midwife…if you are concerned you could call your midwife, or ob…they really don’t mind if you call, in fact, usually when they are on call they are staying in the birthing center, or maternity ward already anyway.
hope you feel better

I hate to tell you, your midwife will not give you anything that will work. I took darvicets when I was pregnant with my son. It worked wonders. However Midwives will not give out those kind of Rxs… try an icepack… darvicets didnt hurt my son. He was born 8 lbs 15 ozs @ 39.6 weeks… He is just fine today….

Unfortunately, they do not recommend anything stronger than tylenol without doctor recommendation. You could try some caffeine (a soda or small coffee in moderation is not going to hurt you and might help with the headache), you could also try sitting in a hot steamy bathroom, some peppermint oil rubbed on your temples, a humidifier and/or some vicks vapo rub.

If it is severe, call your doctor – they may have someone on call that can recommend or prescribe something.

Feel better!
