humidifiers dont cause an appreciable drop (no more then a couple of degrees) in room temp.
cool mist is better if moving/walking/reaching kids are around … safer. otherwise its really just personal choice.
How dry does it get in your part of the world @Reha? … I ask because you shouldn’t go above 50% humidity. 35 - 50% is the recommended range. Maybe get a hygrometer to measure how dry your home/room is before turning on the humidifier?

Ehl, in my apartment, it gets really dry and this entire pregnancy I have been stuffy with a swollen nose that’s always red. I can’t seem to get rid of my cough either and don’t want to take any more meds. I already went through a z-pac once and now my doc wants me to take cingulair and zyrtec together at night. I am already on prenatals, iron and DHA. Taking more pills is making me super nervous so I am trying other things. Humidifier was suggested by docs so I am trying that now.
