Feeling guilty

Morning all,

11 weeks tomorrow, took the day off work as I feel bloody horrible. Sick, achy tum and tired. I had terrible nausea from 5-9 weeks but over the past few weeks it's cleared, but today's sick feels different, as if it's sat in my throat but won't come out. I now feel incredibly guilty thinking I could've coped being at work.

Am I being daft or is it selfish to take a day when feeling rough??

You need to focus on your health. Use the day off to catch up on your sleep if you aren’t being actively sick.
