Anyone else laid low by a cold?

Day 3 of a cold. 32 weeks. Cannot do ANYTHING.
I feel very weak, very tired and haven't managed to leave the house in 3 days. All I have is a runny nose and sore throat as far as I can tell, so I'm a bit Confused: I know immune system doesn't work that well in pregnancy but this is ridiculous. My son and my husband both got rid of this in a couple of days - and it didn't hit them half as hard.
Anyone else enjoying a bh weekend cold? Or is it just me? Keep thinking I need to get up and about a bit more when I try I just feel 10 times worse. Haven't done anything more strenuous than laundry and making lunch for my son. And I am soooo bored.
Grouch, moan, splutter. More grouching.

I had a severe cold that i couldn't get rid of at 33 weeks. I ended up going to the Gp as it just wasn't shifting.

I ended up with a chest/ sinus infection and on antibiotics. Don't let it get that bad Flowers

Hey there. Misery loves company! He he

Short thing- that sounds awful! I will watch out, but its odd - it's not like I have severe cold symptoms but just feel awful.

Good luck with the recovery too Expecting....! It's crappy isn't it. Thought I was getting better yesterday but feeling worse today in terms of energy and fatigue.....feeling a bit sorry for my son. He's been in all day because of this....

I've had a sore throat which led to a sore ear every time I ate or drank anything. Had a few headaches and a blocked nose. So much fun haha. I feel a little better today thankfully! It's hard isn't it but cant be helped, hope your day went quick x
