20 weeks pregnant with an absolute stinker of a cold! Nose blocked one minute, literally pouring with snot the next. Eyes tired and achey. Even my ears feel bunged up. Headache, and absolutely knackered. Pharmacist wouldn’t advise on any mediation so currently munching down the paracetamol every four hours which helps a tiny bit for an hour then i feel like crap again. Inhaling olbas covered tissues, smearing myself in Vicks and drinking hot honey and lemon. What does everyone else do? Sleep has been a nightmare for weeks now, waking up at 3/4am every day.
Also, does anyone feel like colds have gotten worse since Covid? I’ve had a handful of colds since I had it December 21 and they’ve all been so much more debilitating than Covid itself. Took a sick day at work today but planning on going in tomorrow as I started feeling ok earlier but now the paracetamol has worn off it’s hit me like a ton of bricks again. I usually soldier on with colds but the ones I’ve had since Covid have been bloody awful!
Appetite through the floor as well. Baby not moving as much (heartbeat checked today, all good it seems).
Just so miserable now I’ve felt awful since Saturday night, truly like I’ve been dug up!
