post nasal drip in pregnancy?

has anyone else experienced post nasal drip so bad it upsets their stomach CONSTANTLY on a daily basis? My doctor usually prescribes me clariton and it helps a little...have you guys tried anything else that might work better? It would be nice to drink milk again lol. Milk makes it WAY worse so I get my calcium other ways.

    Runny nose is very common in pregnancy. Your cervix starts to soften, but because your body can't differentiate between all your mucous membranes, it will soften them all. That leads to a runny nose.

    I don't think there's much you can do about it. There are a few medicines that you can take during pregnancy, but as this may be your little issue for the duration, you might not want to take something every day. Chat with your doctor. In the meantime, know you have lots of company!
