Hot take: Skip the steam and go straight for the saline nasal spray. Less hassle, no risk of burns, and it's just as effective for that stuffy nose.

Inhaling steam during pregnancy is generally considered safe, especially if it's just plain steam to help relieve nasal congestion. It's a common home remedy that can be quite soothing. Just ensure the water isn't too hot to prevent any risk of burns, and keep the steam inhaling sessions short to avoid overheating. Always best to consult with your healthcare provider for advice tailored to your specific situation.

I was super congested during my second trimester, and my doctor actually recommended steam inhalation with a few drops of eucalyptus oil. Worked wonders for me, but definitely check with your own doc first.

Absolutely, steam inhalation can be a lifesaver for congestion during pregnancy. Just be careful not to scald yourself with the hot water. Using a humidifier at night might also help you breathe easier.
