What to Do About Colds and Allergies During Pregnancy...?

[rurouni]

I think I am either coming down with something or my allergies are acting up much worse this year, due to my pregnancy. I usually only get sniffles and coughs if I am very active during pollin season (e.g. playing sports outside). I am having a very stuffy nose, a bit of a cough and tired, itchy eyes right now, so I'm thinking allergies. However, I'm also very achey all over and a lot of people at work have been sick lately, so I might just have a bug.

Anyway, since I'm only really supposed to have Tylenol, what have you all found as the best remedies for these sort of symptoms during pregnancy? I can't really stay home from work and just rest, so I need some solutions to get me through the day without feeling completely icky. I'm 13.5 weeks along, if that helps.
I was asking mostly for non-medicine solutions. Of course, I will talk to my doctor at my next appointment, but that isn't for a few weeks.

I would stock up on tea and soups now. Think vaporizer, humidifier, saline spray, steam your face over boiling pot of water. Everytime I'm achey I get a horrible bug and if your preggo you can't take anything for it.
Maybe it won't be too bad
