Bleaugh. Getting my first preggo cold . . .

post #1 of 5

And it's descending like a ton of bricks! ugh.

I'm on night shift--woke up WAY too early this morning, coughing. Couldn't get much sleep after that. Sore throat, dry and tickly, chest feels heavy. Definitely a cold coming on.

Ew. Poor thing. You know the drill though, lots of fluids and as much sleep as you can. Can you take honey to soothe the cough?

Hope you feel better soon,
Both my LO's hvae a cold and cough and I'm trying to keep warm and really hydrated. I had terrible sinus problems when I was preg with ds so I really hope I avoid these this time!!

yes, I got some honey down--I'm actually at work tonight and gutting out the last two hours. ZZZZzzzz.

I made a couple cups of lemon "tea" (ie, slices of lemon, water, and honey.) It tasted WONDERFUL. Funny, but one of my friends is pregnant and told me she has been eating lemons by the pound. That's what gave me the idea and YUM!

I just have to make it through the end of shift, then I can go sleep!

I hope your shift passes quickly for you so you can get some rest!

DH and DD2 have colds here, and I sleep right in the middle of them so I'm expecting it to get me next.
