For three days i've had this sore throat
and it seems to be getting worse and
worse. I am hardly able to swallow and
can only talk at a minimum (much to the
joy of my husband). My ears also hurt
when I swallow and talk. I don't know if
there is anything I can do. I am
drinking tea, but I don't want to drink
too much of it. I am also drinking water
and flat ginger ale. Has anybody ever
had a sore throat while pregnant before?
And what did you take or can you take to
make it better. If its this severe
should I go to the doctors?
Thanks girls

Go to the doctors hun you could have strep
and you could only take an antibiotic to
get rid of it. What your doing is okay
but its not going to go away.

I had the exact same thing. You need to
go to the doc. He gave me 10 days of
antibiotic. Drink decaf hot green tea and
take sore throat losengers. My pharmacist
recomended this and also said gargle with
warm salt water (it really does work)
