I'm really worried about my wife's nasal congestion. She's 21 weeks pregnant and it's been really severe. She already took a Montek LC but it doesn't seem to be helping with the cold. Could you tell me which nasal drop would be safe for her to use in the second trimester of pregnancy?

View allI'm in my 7th month of pregnancy and started having this cough since last night. Could you suggest any remedies? I'm really concerned if this could be harmful to my baby.
As a pregnant woman in your 7th month, it's essential to manage your cough safely; consider trying warm liquids like tea or broth, honey, and saline drops; avoid cough medicines containing alcohol, caffeine, or codeine; instead, opt for pregnancy-safe cough medications like dextromethorphan or guaifenesin, after consulting your obstetrician; in general, a cough itself doesn't harm the baby, but underlying conditions like pneumonia or bronchitis can, so monitor your symptoms and seek medical attention if they worsen or persist.

I'm feeling a bit worried because my wife is 20 weeks pregnant and her screening tests for Down syndrome all came back fine, except for the nuchal fold measurement, which is at 6.7mm. I'm wondering if we should be concerned about this? What could it mean for the baby?

I've had a red pimple-like bump inside my vagina for about 10 days and it's gotten really painful. Could this just be a pimple or something more serious like a cyst or tumor? I'm really worried about needing surgery. What could be causing this and is there anything I can do to treat it at home? The pain is making me anxious and I'd appreciate some guidance on what to do next.
The most common reason for vaginal pimples is a clogged pore. The skin on your vulva contains pores that can become clogged with bacteria, oil, sweat and dead skin. This triggers an immune response, which creates a pimple. Contact dermatitis: A skin reaction to something that touches your vulva
