WARNING SYMPATHY POST: 😢So I'm as sick as a dog and have spent most of the day crying! ....i'm just in so much pain! ...I have had a cold since April 1st that I can't get rid of, conjunctivitis, very painful gums and teeth, an awful cough that makes me vomit, pain in the chest when coughing and breathing, all day daily headaches and have finally had enough and went to the Drs...So I apparently have a severe chest infection and inflammation of the lungs which we need to address first before I get hospitalised and they've now put me on antibiotics, 3 a day...3 times a day for 7 days and if I'm not better by then we'll have to find another way to attack it.
I swear I just want to curl up into a ball and never wake up! the last time I was this sick was after I gave birth to my eldest child and got pneumonia, it's worse now because I'm so Limited on what I can do and use due to being pregnant 😢😢😭😭

@baby316, Aww thank you so much hun, means a lot...I'm so fed up now and just want to get better, my husband doesn't want me to take the amoxicillin because he's worried about the baby but he's not getting that I've been in tears all day because I'm so sick and have been ill all day everyday since April 1st! that's not normal. Now I can barely breathe and I'm being sick when I cough it's so painful, not only that but while he's always at work I have two kids to take care of and take to school and pick up and feed every evening. It's a lot to expect me to suffer through, I wouldn't have minded as that was my plan anyway but I have only gotten worse over the days and weeks so clearly this and all the natural remedies are not working 😔...it's nice to have some sympathy because I'm feeling guilty for giving in and taking medicine xx

Don't feel guilty sweetie. You are going through so much. There's only so much your body can take and I for one know how difficult it is to look after two children and not feel well, it is not easy at all. If the only way you are going to get better is the medication then that's what you need to do as when the baby does arrive it will need a healthy and happy Mummy. Women's bodies are amazing creating and carrying life but it takes a lot of strength and being ill makes it so much more difficult. I am here for you if you need to talk. Just message me. Lots of love xx

@baby316, thank you hun, everything you've said is true and you have helped me to feel much better about it now. I think with feeling so rotten I just let it all get to me and was an emotional mess yesterday feeling like I failed everyone as I'm usually always taking the natural route but just couldn't suffer any more, usually I'd be fine by now but with the pregnancy on top I guess my body was struggling to recover. It definitely makes sense to take them as I was getting worse and my gp told me my next step would be the hospital 😣 and as you said my girls and baby need a healthy mum so that's what I should be focusing on. Thank you again hun and same to you if you ever need to talk 😘😘😘
