Pregnant after 35

sick as a dawg

since saturday.  coughing, gi distress ... really unpleasant.

went to the doc this AM ... viral, nothing to be done but rest and fluids.  oh, and i can take robitussin for the cough.  doc also said that pregnancy lowers the body's immune response, so a regular cold will last longer for a pg woman.  terrific.

  • Oh that stinks!  Hope you are feeling better sooner rather than later.  If you can kick your feet up, rest and relax and take care of yourself.

     Feel better!

  • I saw your comment on my post too....so sorry you're sick!!!! It's the worst...I totally can relate! And that 'special' fact about pregnancy and illness...no way! I thought we were MORE immune? PHOOEY! Well....at least I won't get overly optimistic that this will go away quickly. Feel better and rest well.

  • Sorry to hear this :(  I just recently got over a cold that seemed to hang on FOREVER.  I guess being pregnant exacerbates it- no fun.

    Drink lots of water and rest when you can!  Hope this passes quickly.
