Though pregnant women cannot accept drugs, and during the periods of colds save only folk remedies - honey, raspberry, milk. If these products it is impossible what then to do?

Concerning risk of developing of an allergy – if mom has no allergy to raspberry, then there is no occasion to worry also for health of the baby. Salicylic acid (and to a large extent its synthetic analog - acetilsalicylic) expands vessels that can cause uterine bleeding and as a result premature birth therefore medicines with this substance are contraindicated to pregnant women.
