Not m/s... Just sickness :(

Wednesday I had some sinus pressure and lightheadedness which I attributed to water/food intake. Thursday I started sneezing in the morning - never a good sign more me, and by the evening I was congested. Friday hit me like a freight train and gave me one of the worst colds I've ever had. 

Needless to say we were concerned since my typical response would be to chug NyQuil like its my job. I hardly have an appetite and things don't always stay out, so been on a liquid diet for most of the past 4 days. 

We've talked to a friend who is a pharmacist since my doc office was close over the weekend but I'm terrified to take any medicine. I'm pretty sure it's on its way out now... Our little pumpkin sure has gone through a bumpy ride with all my coughing and full body sneezing (I feel like I've been doing crunches for 2 hours straight) but I'm hopeful.

I know some of you have been sick during your pregnancies... What have you done to get through it?

With em I got the flu, not just any flu but the dreaded H1N1. And I just had to suffer. Lots of fluids. Lots of rest. And a thermometer every hour to make sure I wasn't over heating. It was hard but Em is here and amazing. You can make it. Also a small shout out to Humphrey! Hi ya little guy long time no see.

I had the same thing a few weeks ago, the week after I found out I was pregnant. I STILL have a little bit of a cough lingering. Like you said, I just had to suffer through it. I sucked on a lot of life savers and chewed a lot of gum to try and stop the coughing. I tried to sleep as upright as possible, too. It all seemed to help a little bit.
