Question
My daughter cough very bad and the coughing turns in bad headache. She is 6 months pregnant. What can she do?  

Answer
Hi Jean,
 With her being pregnant and having a bad cough, she should go in and check with the doctor. Is she an asthmatic? If so, she would need to discuss this with the doctor to see if she needed to be on medication and which medications would be safe.
