What are safe remedies to relieve itchy throat during early pregnancy?
Hey mommys! I need help… I am 5 weeks pregnant and Im having this itchy throat for 2 days now and I don’t know what’s causing it. I don’t have any known allergies and I don’t feel sick. I woke up one day feeling congested and a really itchy throat that’s making me cough really bad (dry cough). I wonder if there’s any safe medicine I can take or alternatives I can do stop it.

An itchy throat and dry cough is typical for a pregnant woman. Avoid self-medication and do not take medicine without referring to the doctor accordingly. Gargling with warm salty water, drinking enough fluid, and taking steam inhalation can but provide some relief. Visit your gynecologist for additional medical assistance and treatment.
