Woe is me!

I'm pretty sure I have the flu. The actual flu, not a tummy bug. It hit me fast and hard earlier today and since then I'm only feeling worse and worse. I can't even get out of bed and of course I have so much to do before Christmas! Ahh this stinks. Okay, thanks for letting me whine for a minute, lol. I hope no one else is dealing with this because it's miserable!

    Did you get a flu shot? Call your OB, if it is the actual flu there maybe something you can take. I'm not sure if it's safe during pregnancy though. Hope it's just a nasty cold, and not the flu! Feel better soon

    Call your doctor! Get tamiflu, I believe you have to take it within 48 hours of coming down with it!! Feel better & take care!

    Agreed 100% with pp. call the dr. Also watch your temp and make sure you don't spike a fever.

    I definitely had a fever last night. It was a rough night. I'm feeling a bit better this morning, just wish my kids would let me rest. I'm not sure how comfortable I am with tamiflu especially while pregnant, plus I'm not totally positive it's the flu anyway. I was just thinking it was because of how fast and strong it came on, out of nowhere too, but who knows! Hopefully I was wrong!

    Whenever I start to feel like I might be getting sick I make a home remedy made with:
    2 TBS BRAGGS Raw unfiltered Applecider vinegar
    Juice from 1/2 a lemon (or from whole lemon depending on size)
    1 TBS honey (I use raw)
    12-16 Oz warm water
    Cinnamon (to taste)
    I try to drink it 1-2 times a day until symptoms go away. It works for me!
    Hope you feel better soon!

    Thanks @Trinirican3ondway, I have all of those things on hand so I will give it a try. Sounds disgusting, but if it works, I'm down!
