Babies: 3 - 6 Months

NBR: I'm sick...

...and I can't take anything!!! Not that I ever really feel better after taking DayQuil or Tylenol Cold & Sinus, but at least I feel like I'm trying. Plain old Tylenol & Sudafed just aren't getting the job done. My sinuses hurt just enough to be annoying & I'm stuffed up just enough to need a box of tissues handy constantly. But, nothing is bad enough to warrant a doctor visit.

So, I'm stuck washing my hands every five minutes & slathering on hand sanitizer so I don't get DD sick as well. But the worst part is knowing that I'm not the same mom right now. I don't have the energy to take DD for a walk (even though it's beautiful outside) or play with her the same way I usually do. I have only a few weeks of maternity leave left & I really want to make the most of them.

I hate being sick. Crying

  • I am in the same boat!! DD gave me her sickness. She has a Chest Infection and is on antibiotics. I just got back from the Dr's and have been put on an antibiotic as well.. Stupid Cold and Flu season can kiss my @ss.

    Hope you feel better soon!!!

  • Feel better. I have a scratchy throat, and I am really hoping it doesn't progress. LO is getting a bit snotty too. Being sick is no fun. Take care of yourself. You are not a bad mom if your are not interacting 100% every day. Put LO on the activity mat for a bit of independent play, make yourself a cup of tea, and try to relax for a little while.
  • Thanks, ladies. I haven't been sick in almost 2 years which is why I'm such a baby about it. Of course, this is also the first year that DH absolutely forbade me from getting a flu shot. Long story there....No
