sick or just tired?

I am having a hard time time deciding if I am getting sick or I am just overtired today. DH watched the superbowl so we didn't get to bed as early as we normally do and therefore I didn't get as much sleep as usual. Today I am just wiped out. I really didn't want to get out of bed and now I'm at work and just wishing I could sleep. I don't have much of an appetite and even my banana this morning gave me heartburn (which I haven't gotten so far at all).  Does it sound like I am coming down with something or I am just experiencing some of the wondrous side effects of pregnancy?

Re: sick or just tired?

  • You sound pregnant to me. I was the exact same way last Monday after a really rough night of little sleep and a lot of worry. Once I got home, I napped, ate a decent dinner, showered and then went to bed. I felt much better in the morning. If you get a good night's sleep tonight and still don't feel good tomorrow, then maybe call the doctor.

    ETA:  Remember that everything is worse when we're pregnant. Exhaustion and stress lead to feeling much worse now than it did before we were KU.

  • Thanks, that helps. I think I had a pretty good idea that was it but I just feel like a wuss if I get less than 9 hours of sleep at night :(  I guess it is good preparation, right?

  • Yep. But by then we'll be ready for it, apparently. Stick out tongue

  • Being a long time insomniac(3-5hrs a night) I can tell you this is definitely what it feels like when you dont sleep well. Your brain literally hurts and everything you eat feels harsh going down. But after about 3 or 4 hours of being awake and moving around you'll probably start to feel better and get a second wind. Hope you can get some rest tonight!

  • I've been feeling a little sick for a few days (tingly in the nose) and like you, I stayed up too late last night for Super Bowl festivities, so I feel lousy today.  Early to bed tonight!!
