A special period in a woman’s life is pregnancy. It was at this time that it was important to seriously and responsibly approach all decisions, since we are responsible not only for our own lives, but also for the baby’s life. During pregnancy, it is impossible to protect yourself from the whole world, so the likelihood of ARVI disease is not excluded. To reduce it, it is necessary to replenish the lack of vitamins and minerals in the body. But if you still get sick, then you should learn as much as possible about a disease such as SARS in pregnant women.
The main solution at this point is immediate treatment. SARS during pregnancy does not cause malformations in the fetus, but significantly increases the chances of miscarriage, especially with a period of up to 10-12 weeks. After all, most drugs are contraindicated in pregnant women, they can lead to pregnancy complication.
In order to raise a healthy baby, do not self-medicate, putting on experiments. The first thing you should do is go see a doctor. It is not recommended to take any medications without his advice, especially this applies to the first trimester of pregnancy, since it is in the first months that the vital organs and systems of the baby are laid.
Try to drink more fluids, such as warm tea, but only if you do not have swelling. With acute respiratory viral infections during pregnancy, there may be a high temperature, in this case antipyretics, such as paracetamol and aspirin, are allowed, but not more than two tablets per day. Drops from a runny nose are undesirable. Quite often, pregnant women use aloe juice, considering it safe, but this is wrong because it provokes a miscarriage.
In order to get rid of a cold, you can use the means "Dolphin" or "Pinosol." As soon as the condition improves, you need to stop the use of drugs.

soar your legs, this leads to a reduction in the uterus and can
provoke a miscarriage.The course of treatment for acute respiratory viral infections during pregnancy should not be interrupted as soon as the acute symptoms of the disease disappear.
