Congestion and Sleep

Currently week 15 going 16. Was down with flu cough and fever during week 10 and after that all the way till now i have been having nose congestion and stuff nose almost the entire day and night. (Pregnancy rhinitis?) When its sleep time, I feel so stress that I am unable to breathe properly and causes me to be super fidgety and cant sleep every night. Gynae did prescribe allersin for me to take every night till no symptoms, but I am still congested.. I feel so helpless. When will this go away?

Hihi, just a follow up if you have managed to get better the last few days? Hopefully you are having better sleeps. Did allersin works a little in helping to cope? I am experiencing the exact same thing as described. And it is causing me so much sleep disruption. I have visited GP and clear all the medicine dosage but the nasal congestion is still around causing me a lot of sleep disruption. Am affected badly by it. You are not alone ya :( I wonder what is the next action I can take and I am quite desperate. My nasal congestion does not only happen at night and my days get disrupted too. :(

Hihi, omg, glad to know you got better over time and found some ways to cope with it. I am hoping hard that I won’t be having this nasal congestion over the entire pregnancy. Anw I have been having bad flu and recovering super slowly since a lot of medication I couldn’t take as a pregnant mum. Believe the medicine are not strong enough to fully remove the flu and my immune is fighting hard. I have visited GP twice and finished the medication and I am still not fully recovered from the nasal congestion and it’s causing me so much sleep disruption. After hearing you, I think I am going to seek my gynae for help on giving me allersin if possible. (I can’t last any longer for this lacking of sleep. Haha) Thanks thanks

same here..I had it for a month now and took 2 rounds of antibiotics because it developed into a bad infection. Saw GP today & he told me I have a post nasal drip problem, further examinations will be required if I dont recover in a few days time. He will need to refer me back to my gynae for this matter for the next steps..probably need to see specialist...feeling so miserable for disturbed sleep because of the coughing, irritated throat & constant phelgm throw up.
