Just need to moan... sorry!

[legallyblond]

Sorry to post a moan....

I am 14 weeks today and was expecting to wake up miraculously feeling wonderful and glowing (well, sort of ). Instead, I have come down with a stinker of a cold, have a raging headache and feel sick sick sick (all I can manage to eat today are fizzy strawberry shoelaces - yes, really. I have tried normal food today with unpleasant results, at both ends). Plus, I didn't sleep last night because of the cold and because I was boiling hot for some reason - so that adds to the usual pg exhaustion.
I really did't want to just post a moan, but I am at work, where we are CRAZY busy coming up to the year end (I am a lawyer) and no-one knows I am pg... errrgh, I hate suffering in silence!!!

Ahem. Sorry. Moan over!

Moan away - I'm like you. I have had a cough and cold for 2 weeks now. I don't know what's pregnancy sickness and what's sickness sickness anymore.

Hope you get better soon.

I got my second cold during this pregnancy at the weekend and feel awful! I have had several terrible nights sleep and my son has had chicken pox aswell.

I would say take a day off, doesn't matter if you're pregnant or not you have a horrible cold and you're better off at home than spreading it to everyone else and wearing yourself out!

I wish I could take a day off, I'm a childminder and I hate letting my parents down not to mention loosing money. Hope your pregnancy improves
