  If a pregnant woman experiences a cold, nasal congestion, or cough at nine months of pregnancy, remember not to be too nervous. If the symptoms of a cold, nasal congestion, and cough are relatively mild, then drink plenty of hot water and regularly brew lemon honey water to improve your immune system and enhance vitamin C. If nasal congestion is severe, hot water vapor can be used to relieve it. If you have a sore throat, you can drink salt water, but you cannot drink too salty salt water to avoid edema in the later stages of pregnancy. Lying down and keeping your head at a 35 degree angle with your body, or trying to eat snow pear stew, can relieve your cough to a certain extent.

  If you have a severe cold, nasal congestion, and cough at nine months of pregnancy, you should go to the hospital for examination in a timely manner. Even if you are already nine months pregnant, you cannot be careless and take medication indiscriminately. After all, being nine months pregnant is not easy, and if you take the wrong medication, it can have a negative impact on your baby.

  Pregnant women have a more sensitive physique compared to ordinary people, with weaker resistance and a higher risk of catching a cold. However, in such situations, one should not be overly nervous and should seek medical attention as soon as possible. Pregnant women can also place air humidifiers at home to clean the air, and they should also drink plenty of water.
