  • I have had the man flu recently too and I found I got over it alot quicker without taking anything, it ended up only lasting about 4 days whereas when I wasn't pg I would take all kinds of stuff and it would go on for weeks.
    A warm bath with essential oils unblocked my nose and lots of chocolate made me feel better lol.

    I hope this helps
