Dry heat/Stuffy head

lucisparents

Our house is really dry. The heat seems to always be going and my head is killing me! Right now I have TWO humidifiers in my small bedroom with both of my heater vents closed and I know I will wake up with a congested head and a sore throat. I upped my water intake today, hoping that will help.

And when I say sore throat, I mean the back/roof of my mouth, I guess below my sinus cavity? And I'm not having colored snot so I don't think it's an infection. Sorry, gross.

This seems to happen every year for the first week as the weather gets really cold but it's sooo much worse while pregnant. My Dr always says "You can take benadryl" but I tried and it didn't help.

Anyone else have this problem, and figure out a way to feel better?
