Hey Ladies, Just wondering if anyone else has experience a flemmy cough while pregnant. Its pretty much been there for a few months now and i also sneeze alot. Do you think this is just part of pregnancy?? Im not feeling sick or anything as in flu/cold sick. ------------- http://pregnancyplanet.net/tickers/">

I have that Kell and i think that is why i am sick in the mornings because of the build up of flem over the night.
I have also been sneezing more than i usually do. I think it might be pregnancy but see what other people say.  ------------- ** MUM TO ** Ethan 29/08/2006 Brooke 22/09/2008 |

I had that last time, and got it again now... really annoying! I find that keeping a bottle of water by my bed helps, and I have a sip from it whenever I wake to keep my mouth moist, which helps me to cope first thing in the morning - my mouth isn't as full of yucky flem. ------------- Becca, mum of 2 girls & 3 boys |

Yup - I too get really sneezy and more "phlegmy" than usual. It's got something to do with our immune systems semi-shutting down during pregnancy (so our bodies don't try and reject the baby). One of the many joy's of pregnancy ------------- Joshua Hadynn - Born 3 May 2006 |

| Just be quite careful that you don't end up getting a chest infection. If it is bad you might want to see a doctor. |

I get the same thing, gross as it sounds I actually have to keep a container next to the bed to spit into at night as if I swallow it it makes me vomit worse. -------------  Maya Grace (28/02/03)
