Allergies & pregnancy

Thread Starter 
I am 13 weeks PG. I suffer from year round allergies that are worse now that I am pregnant. I never took conventional meds when not pregnant but I am so miserable now I am wondering if there are Homeo remedies which are safe during pregnancy for allergies. Any ideas would be great.

I can empathize. I am miserable with allergies right now!! (2nd due in April). Anyway, my sister is a chiropractor & she just gave me "NET Remedies #8 Allergy" This is a homeopathic preparation, in a brown bottle with a dropper top. The bottle says to take 2 droppers 3x/day. My sis told me one dropper/day. I've been on it for a few days. No changes yet. She said many of her patients w/a variety of allergies have had success with it. So, like I say, I can't vouch for it yet, but she said it's safe when pg. (I found your post while trying to search for allergy relief. Not very encouraging that you got no other replies!) Hope it helps!

Thought I'd follow up to say that the homeopathic medicine worked wonders. I've stopped taking it for a few weeks now & my symptoms have not returned. I have some nasal congestion, but I know that's normal when pg. My constant sneezing, itchy & watery eyes are gone.

Pregnant and have developed allergies.

Thanks for the info, I am at the end of my first trimester and have been plagued with itchy eyes, itchy throat, sneezing, itchy ears, and sometimes even difficulty breathing. I had none of these problems in my first pregnancy or when not pregnant. I am going to try the homeopathic medicine you mentioned. If anyone else has any advise on this subject, please post.
Its not as if morning sickness isn't bad enough on its own.....
