Hello
Welcome to HCM forum
Amoxycillin is safe in third trimester of pregnanacy
You can get IV fluids in the form of dextrose , amino acids for 2-3 days under doctor's guidance and advice but you have to get admitted to a hospital for one or two days
Soups and juices with milk are also better
Do saline gargles
Best wishes
