colds & pregnancy.

edited February 2011 in Health
Is it a usual thing to have less immunity when your pregnant ? So being vulnerable to catching a cold is easier. Anyone experience this in early pregnancy ..

Jw ; thanks(:

  • Yes our immune system is lowered cause when we get pregnant that is forign to our bodies so our immune system is lowered the body dosent reject the fetus....yes I am 17 weeks and had the flu and broncitis since lol

    Oh wow I didn't know that honestly.
    I just knew being pregnant makes your body more prone to infection & sickness.

    Im not exactly pregnant I've been getting negative results & I'm going to the doctors on the 21st because I don't believe the tests.. the symptoms are VERY visible.

    I'm sick now and haven't been this whole winter. I haven't been doing anything different I think its majorly because I most likely am pregnant.. I've taken sudafed and was worried if it would affect the embryo, I feel like crud ontop of pregnancy symptoms so I had to take something.
  • Nope you can take sudafed...well my ob said I could and I did lol good luck I hope you get your answer!
  • @marierica.
    Thanks, I hope its okay for me too!
    Good luck with your pregnancy as well(:
  • Thanks! You will have to let me know if you are but if the symptoms are there then you most likely are! :)
  • @marierica.

    Yeah, everyone on this app will know.
    Oh I can't wait! You have no idea.
    The signs are all there ; so your right (:
    My friends say the same thing & they have kids of their own as well..
    Me & my fiance just need our proof.
