summer colds

Aren't they the worst?!  I've been really sick all week which sucked especially bad since it was such a BUSY week at work.  Anyone else have this plague?  What otc meds work the best for you?

Re: summer colds

  • Ugh, they really are. I had one a couple weeks ago and had to throw a Father's day BBQ when it was bad. Not to mention trying to take care of an infant when I feel like total poo! Poor H caught it, too.

    I am BFing so didn't want to take any decongestants (they can mess with milk supply). I used the neti pot twice a day which is totally amazing, plus Afrin when the congestion was at its worst and one Benadryl before bed to help me sleep. And plain Tylenol for the sinus headaches.

    Feel better!

  • I get a summer cold every single summer, and I have yet to get one yet so far...but I know it's lurking around the corner waiting to attack. Probably in 2 weeks when I have a wedding out on Long Island to go to.

  • DH pretty much has cold symptoms all summer b/c of his allergies -- stuffy/runny/sneezy/coughing.  And of course he always forgets to take his allergy meds, which is the only thing with any chance of helping him!
