How to get rid of cough during pregnancy

What is the cure for pregnancy during early and late periods?

Cough, as one of the symptoms of colds, causes discomfort to any person, and what to say about pregnant women.

It can happen on any day of long-awaited pregnancy - the immunity in these 9 months is significantly weakened, hypothermia or the slightest contact with a sick person, which may seem healthy in appearance, easily leads to cold, acute respiratory infections.

It is important to understand that coughing is not a disease, but a symptom of a variety of diseases and is a reflex reaction of the organism, which facilitates the release of the respiratory tract from the pathological bronchial secret. That is, one should not cure a cough, but a disease that caused it. Sometimes, coughing can be a consequence of an allergic reaction of the body to any external stimulus (see. allergic cough: symptoms, treatment).

Treatment of cough during pregnancy is a serious problem, since most effective combined antitussive drugs or expectorants for cough, including plant, is prohibited pregnant. And not infrequently pregnant women with caution perceive the appointment of even approved medications, fearing to harm the baby, and using cough medicine from traditional medicine. But you should know that some medicinal plants are also contraindicated and have side effects, not less than medicamentous.

Another wrong way is to use children's syrup from cough during pregnancy and other medications used for cough treatment in infants up to 3 years of age, since the approved cough for children can not always be safe for the fetus. Every future mother should know that cough should be treated, and treated according to the doctor's recommendations.

What is dangerous cough?

Since cough, as a rule, accompanies a viral or bacterial disease of the respiratory system, the lack of adequate treatment is dangerous both for the mother (complications, the transition of the disease in a chronic form), and for the child, as it creates a real threat to pregnancy - the risk of intrauterine infection, premature birth or miscarriage, malformations of the fetus.

Cough itself, as a reflex action, leads to an increase in the tone of the uterus - a dangerous condition that does not abort pregnancy and fetal hypoxia. Women with low placenta or with placenta previa cough due to significant muscular strain threatens with uterine bleeding.

A severe cough during pregnancy causes an attack of nausea and aggravates the course of toxicosis, if any (see. nausea in pregnancy, gestosis during pregnancy).

1 trimester of pregnancy - what drugs to cure cough?

The first 2 months of fetal gestation are the most important, since it is during this period that the main formation of systems and organs, and a small fertilized egg acquires real human features, as parents are convinced at the first screening.

The most serious pathologies and malformations of the fetus occur precisely in the first trimester, and to provoke them, including, the reception of a contraindicated drug.

It is advisable not to get sick in the first weeks, but if this happens, you should immediately visit a doctor - it's the doctor will determine the cause of the cough, hold the necessary examinations and recommend how and what to cure when pregnancy.

Initially, the doctor will be appointed sparing methods of fighting cough, and only then drugs, albeit relatively safe. The word is relatively well-used - an individual negative reaction to the active substances of the drugs is not ruled out.

Some future mothers use so-called cough drops, which are freely sold in supermarkets. To say that they will be of great benefit is wrong. Most often these sweets are saturated with extracts of mint and eucalyptus, along with preservatives, sweeteners and aromatizers, and the relief is very short, which forces the lozenges to dissolve one by one one.

The table shows cough preparations, the use of which is acceptable in pregnancy in the first trimester (see Table 1). a calculator for calculating the length of gestation by weeks).

What is dangerous cough during pregnancy in the 3rd trimester

In the last trimester of pregnancy, the fetus is intensively growing. A future mother in later terms is very susceptible to infection with various diseases, the concomitant phenomenon of which is a cough. He can deliver many unpleasant moments to the pregnant woman and cause various critical conditions.

Causes of danger during the last trimester of pregnancy

Reflex forced forced exhalations are only a symptom accompanying certain diseases:

• ARVI.
• Bronchitis.
• Allergies.
• Inflammation of the lungs.
• Dysfunctions of the thyroid gland and other ailments.

No pathological process can be favorable for bearing a baby.

As an independent phenomenon, cough is also extremely harmful for a pregnant woman in the last trimester. It can cause irreparable damage to the health of mother and child.

Cough at 7 months of pregnancy

After 27 weeks, there is a high risk of fetoplacental insufficiency resulting from the blocking of various infections that cause cough during pregnancy. Such an anomaly leads to hypoxia and a delay in intrauterine development of the fetus.

From 28 to 30 weeks the child moves a lot and becomes cramped, as the uterus strongly envelops him. It rises high and presses against the diaphragm. At this time the uterine musculature continues to prepare intensively for childbirth, periodically contracting. Cough during pregnancy on the 3rd trimester serves as a powerful provocateur, greatly enhancing such reflexive urges. They can develop into real bouts and cause premature termination of pregnancy.

Cough at 8 months of pregnancy

From the age of 32 the baby can already hear well. Mom's strong cough prevents him from falling asleep. The uterus in this trimester rises to the ribs and the woman often lacks air. During the attacks at 33, 34 weeks pregnant begins to suffocate. This causes oxygen starvation of the child.

The rhythm of the baby's heart at the 8th month can reach 120-160 beats per minute. Because of cough during pregnancy on the 3rd trimester, his blood pressure rises and arrythmia arises, which causes congenital pathologies.

From 32 to 35 weeks, the maximum stretching of the uterus occurs. With constant attacks of convulsive forced exhalations, she can react spontaneously with cramping movements. This increases the risk of premature birth, increases the likelihood of rupture of an inferior rumen, if a woman previously had a cesarean section. Therefore, treat the disease as soon as possible.

Cough at 9 months of pregnancy

From 36 weeks, the production of placenta progesterone is reduced. Occurrence of its relative insufficiency occurs. The child begins to lack the components necessary for proper nutrition and breathing. During coughing attacks during pregnancy in late terms, the tone of the uterus greatly increases. This further reduces the flow of blood to the placenta and provokes venous congestion. In the third trimester between mother and child organisms, gas exchange is disrupted, oxygen supply, useful substances are slowed down, and the process of excretion of metabolic products is destabilized.

By the 37th week the placenta is aging and becoming very thin. At sharp forced exhalations there is a big risk of its exfoliation and outflow of amniotic fluid.

At 38-39 weeks, the uterus covers the child more closely. His adrenal glands begin to intensify the production of cortisol. Coughing attacks during pregnancy, causing an increase in blood pressure of the mother and child, provoke an even greater increase in the release of the stress hormone. This negatively affects the state of the nervous system of the baby.

How to treat cough during pregnancy in the 3rd trimester

It is only the doctor who can determine the cause causing the attacks of sharp reflex exhalations and their nature. The main thing is to contact him in a timely manner. After the appointment of a specialist, you must carefully follow all the prescriptions and forget about unauthorized use of medications.

It is recommended to avoid the use of antibiotics and antiviral drugs. Doctors put emphasis on the application:

• Rinse throat with soda solution.
• Inhalation with herbs or boiled potatoes.
• Abundant drink fruit fruit, tea with raspberries and currants, milk with butter and honey, herbal decoctions.
• Various compresses.
• Mandatory consumption of mashed potatoes with the addition of a large amount of milk, as well as sour cream with a grated radish.

It is strictly forbidden to treat the disease:

• Soar your feet, put cans and apply mustard plasters.
• Attend physiotherapy.
• Take drugs that have alcohol in the composition.
• Use funds from cough during pregnancy in the 3rd trimester containing chemicals.

During the last trimester of pregnancy, after agreement with the doctor, it is allowed to treat the ailment with certain types of syrups from coughing, as well as breastfeeding.

A future mother needs to remember that she must carefully monitor her health. Incorrect or belated therapy can be a serious enough threat of pregnancy. It is necessary to observe measures to prevent diseases that cause coughing. After all, her future baby is formed, and she is obliged to take care of that he is born strong and healthy.
