FAQs
Is bronchitis harmful during pregnancy?
Bronchitis during pregnancy is generally manageable but can become harmful if left untreated. Persistent coughing and inflammation may impact oxygen flow to the baby, potentially leading to complications like low birth weight or premature labour. Always consult your healthcare provider if you experience bronchitis symptoms during pregnancy to ensure your safety and that of your baby.
How to treat bronchitis while pregnant?
To treat bronchitis while pregnant, focus on rest, staying well-hydrated, and using a humidifier to soothe your airways. Your healthcare provider may also recommend safe medications like cough syrups or antibiotics. In some cases, natural remedies like warm saltwater gargles can provide relief.
Can you use a nebuliser for bronchitis while pregnant?
Yes, using a nebuliser during pregnancy for bronchitis is generally considered safe, but only under medical supervision. Nebulisers deliver medication directly to the lungs, helping to relieve breathing difficulties.
Does bronchitis affect babies during pregnancy?
If left untreated, bronchitis can indirectly affect your baby by reducing the oxygen supply due to impaired breathing. This could potentially lead to issues like low birth weight or preterm labour. However, with prompt treatment and care, the risk is minimal, and bronchitis typically doesn’t have a long-term impact on the baby’s development.
