Throat infection & generally feeling useless

I'm 28 weeks and currently have tonsilitis. Feeling really rubbish and lacking energy (more than normal).
Keep thinking of all the productive things I can do and plan while I'm stuck at home instead of being in work but never seem to see any of it through, then I feel even more useless 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️
I know I'm the only one who can change that but just felt like I needed a moan.
Being pregnant and sick at the same time is actually exhausting!

Just take it easy, dont be hard on yourself if u dont get things done ,being pregnant & ill will make u feel so run down more than when your not pregnant x

Thanks ladies, feeling a little better so I'm out of bed and up and around now, sporting an annoying cough though which I know shouldn't effect the baby but I still feel guilty that I've given her a fright after every coughing fit 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤣

And it turns out I have a strep G Infection?! Random, but on an antibiotic now so 🤞
Its definitely moved to my chest which is so annoying as it's hard enough to sleep without adding a horrible cough into the mix!
