Pains and Remedys

If you have any pains or remedys for pains that you have been through please post them here, because I know alot of us myself included are looking for any safe way to relieve some of the pain we are going through!

Paracetamol is safe to take in pregnancy. Depends what sort of aches and pains you are on about?

Paracetamol?

Yes, Its a typical pain killer that you can buy over the couter.

Arnica 30 tablets for bruising after the birth

Bruising?

Oh gawd your going to frighten the poor girl to death

Sometimes you can feel a little bruised after you've given birth Debbie. Not always but sometimes..afterall when you've pushed something the size of a melon out of something the size of a golf ball, it's not going to be easy

Are you talking about during or after the pregnancy Debbie?

The bruising isnt the only thing! Just wait until you want a wee after the birth!!

:ouch!:

Awww lets not frighten the poor girl too much,stop there lol

But in some ways,sometimes its best too be honest,but being subtle

The main thing is Debbie, that no matter what the pain may be, now or during the birth, once you've actually given birth, it all pales into insignificance. Feeling uncomfortable after the birth is just something you'll take in your stride.

What sort of aches and pains are you experiencing now during your pregnancy?

Mostly I am just trying my best not to get any of those nasty little colds, we actually got snowed in today and I have a head cold and a sore throat. but other than that the swelling in my ankles have started to make it painful for me to walk and I am also expeirencing excrutiating back pain my mother has told me that I might have back labor. I just hope I don't, but other than that nothing really my back though especially while lying down and trying to get what sleep I can in between peeing every 10 to 15 minutes or just getting up because my throats dry it really just hurts and the remedys everyone has given me seems to only relieve the pain momentarily it soon comes back after about 20-25 minutes. It is making getting up and going to work a hastle.

Your making sure you put your feet up aren't you debbie? It will help to alleviate the swelling in your ankles..
I know only too well the aches and pains associated with the last few weeks of pregnancy.. I used to dread going to bed because I just couldn't get comfortable, no matter which way I lay..

Awww you make sure you get plenty of rest and drink plenty of fluids to flush any toxins building up from your cold..

Hope you feel better soon

thankyou the cold is starting to go away i am now stuck with the drip drip of a runny nose my only fear was being sick when my baby was born and me not being able to be around her. hopefully though i will be completely over it my doc told me just to get a humidifier and it will not only help me but it will help the baby as well what are yalls thoughts on those humidifiers a must? or not?
