Becoming our most annoying poster

abbe19 · March 2011

I feel like all I do lately is complain to you girls. I am so sorry to be such a Debbie Downer! So my complaint for today is: I now have a terrible cold!! I have had a sore throat for a couple of days but I thought it was from crying about Baylee. (Thanks for all your well wishes and sympathy yesterday-so sweet.

) But this morning I woke up with my head in a vice and all stuffed up to high heaven. I cannot stop thinking that this is yet another thing to make my body unhealthy for my embies. Is there anything that is safe to take or would you girls just tough it out? Thanks for listening!!

Oh, Abbe, I am so sorry about all you are going through. I would definitely call your RE's office and ask what you can take. I am hoping you can take something to make you feel better. Hang in there and feel better asap!

ditto this! and please don't worry about complaining, going thru this is hard so we understand. we have all been there. Here i'll join you:

I'm still in lots of pain from my surgery and I'm lonely at home by myself. But so nervous these days off will not be enough for me to recover to go back to work next week.

Plain sudafed is safe during pregnancy. Check with your RE to be sure they're okay with it though.

I'm sorry for all you're going through right now.

IF is full of low points, don't feel bad for needing to vent.

Feel better soon. Check with your RE, but I'm told that anything with Tylenol is fine, (like Tylenol cold, etc.). Hugs!

I am so sorry you are still in pain! Your body went thru a lot so I am sure it is completely normal but it doesn't make it any easier. I hope you have lots of good TV/movies and reading material to keep you busy! I wish you had next week off as well-it's hard to know how soon we'll feel better. (((Hugs)))

Thanks girls-I so appreciate your kindness.

I'm so sorry hon. As if you're not stressed enough...I hope you're feeling better soon.

FWIW, I read a story about a lady who came down with the flu the day of her ET. She said she was coughing so hard between ET and her beta, it felt like she bruised her ribs and she was sure her cycle was going to fail. It didn't and she wound up PG with twins!

I would call your RE and take something to relieve your symptoms. Anything "Tylenol" based should be fine.

Oh--BTW, you definitely are NOT our most annoying poster!!

Jessica-that story makes me feel SO much better-thank you!! I am not so worried about being sick-I can handle a cold. I am just afraid for what it's doing to my embies. Don't know if that's stupid or not.

There is nothing annoying about you, Abbe. We all go trhough tough times in life....sometimes we need to lean on others a bit more. You've been through a lot recently and we're here for you!

I personally would just stick to tylenol,chicken soup, oj and tea with lemon and honey. I also highly recommend a Vick's vaporizer. I use it whenever I feel myself getting stuffy and it helps me breathe easier at night. I don't think it would be unsafe becasue it is just going into the air in a light mist but you could call the RE and ask. Rest is probably the best thing you can do for yourself.

Takce care, sweetie (((hugs)))

thank you, you are too sweet. at any qiven moment we all have things to complain about. so dont feel bad about doing it. We should have a weekly post dedicated to complaining about something, just because it feels so much better after just getting it out.

hang in there sweetie.

Peppermint is a good, natural way to clear your sinuses. I bought a bottle of essence of peppermint oil that I sniff when I'm stuffed up. (I know that sounds funny!) Also, I make peppermint tea.
