About Tuesday last week my throat started hurting when I swallowed. By Wednesday I was miserable with a nasty cough and congestion throughout my head, so I went home after suffering through a half day at work and have barely been out of bed since. Coughing while 8 mos. pregnant is not a fun thing. My ab muscles are now so sore it hurts to move. My nose and ears are plugged so breathing and sleeping are challenging. Poor Phil is doing his best to nurse me back to health but I would hate for him to get sick too. There are only a few medications that are ok to take during pregnancy, and even those are not 100% "safe", so I'm trying to beat this cold with lots of fluid, rest, and gargling salt water (ick!!) and only taking medicine when it's absolutely unbearable. Please keep us in your prayers that I will be back to health before the baby's born and that Phil stays healthy. The worst thing would be to feel like this in labor, or for Phil to be sick when our baby is born.
Ok. Sorry for the whining. Back to bed.
