Is it just me or am i walking germ incubator at the mo?
Had a sniffley cold last week, got rid, now i've had a fever for 3 days although the thermometre says im normal, dizzy all the time, headaches and generally fluey.
Is this the norm for the third tri? I'd tell my midwife but she's a misery arse who wants nothing to do with me.
Anyone else full of cold as much as baby?

Its so frustrating isn't it - im literally bunged up to the eyeballs, and can only sleep with my mouth open, which dries it out and then i choke myself awake every half hour :(
Cough is so bad i sound like i have a death rattle and my gp says there's nothing i can have but paracetamol and olbas which are not workin - 5th day now!
Sigh, hope you feel better too x

Same :( I read earlier this week though that from week 31 our immune systems are more suppressed so our bodies don't reject the baby :( I managed to avoid the cold all winter!!

Same here. I think I have had a cold almost every month of this pregnancy. 36 weeks, feel like shit and the thought that I could potentially go into labour feeling like this is terrifying.

Flowers for all of you
