too much mucus!

mommakay

I've always had some mucus when I woke up in the morning but now since I'm pregnant its like I have a leaky mucus fosset in the back of my throat. Its driving me crazy! Now every morning I wake up with a huge knot in my throat and I'm constantly snorting to clear my throat and spitting. My doc says I should get a humidifier cuz I have forced hot air in my apt which isn't helpin, but I've tried a vicks vaporizer last night which is kinda the same thing, but it only helped a little. I'm convinced I just need a type of mucus pill cuz its not jus the apt that gets it goin... Is this happening to anyone else? If so is there an allergy pill I can take?? I'm so desperate for an answer to this nastyness!

Yea so far I've taken long showers to inhale the steam and boiled water to get some moisture in the air. Ill def invest in a real humidifier cuz I know ill need one anyway. Thanx girls! >-

Eek, I thought my little congestion was bad. Sorry, ladies. I actually got two sinus infections in January and had to be put on antibiotics both times.
