Flu at 39 weeks

Hi everyone I am currently at 39 weeks now and got the flu bug. Checked art test and it’s negative. What are the safest way to self medicate? And is it ok to take panadol? #pregnancy #advicepls #firstbaby

I caught the cold/flu when I was 33 weeks. For a week and didn’t take any medication except gargle with salt water due to sore throat and phlegm. Drank a lot of water until I felt it was easier to sit/sleep in the toilet (😅). I took my multi-vitamins as per normal and tried to rest up more even with a 2 year old running about. I don’t depend on medication especially during pregnancy.. and I read that it’s better to see a doc if you caught the flu cause there could be implications on your pregnancy…but I only read about it when I was about to recover so a tad too late for me. Lol. But all’s going well for me though. If you’re worried, just see a doc, ok? ❤️
