I need some prayers ?
So, I am finally down to single digits and I'm sick! Last night i got zero sleep due to a head ache, tooth ache, ear infection, runny nose that gets dry and stuffed on and off, pelvic pain and having to pee every 2 hours.. I really don't want to be sick and go into labor ?. Sorry ladies, just had to get that out.
I hope you feel better! Raw garlic, and hot water with honey and lemon help me.
Also, when you go into labor, the hormones can magically make the symptoms go away...this happened to a friend of mine!
And, you should def breastfeed if you're sick, baby will get your antibodies and be protected!
Thanks ladies! I'm hoping that everything clears up for all of us that are sick. Would really be sad if i can't even breastfeed my lo... ?
Aww sorry you are going thru this ! It sux to be sick right when it's almost baby time!
Are you keeping hydrated? I get headaches when I don't get enough water? Sometimes if my hair is pulled too tight by my ponytail holder it causes headaches.
Toothache? I mix a small capful of hydrogen peroxide with a small cup of mouthwash and I swish and gargle with it. I do that also for sore throats and it usually helps a lot.
Stuffy nose? Asian standby of brain gah-la Tiger balm usually does the trick under the nose. The mouth rinse I described to you also helps clear out my sinuses of the phlegm that clogs up everything.
Earache? I don't have any clue what to do for that though there might be ear drops at Walgreens but don't know if they're safe for pregnant women.
Drinking the pho broth usually helps me or some baw-baw.
Hope you feeling better soon, hun! We both almost there!
I woke up sick in the middle of the night last night. Runny & stuffy nose, sneezing, watery eyes, sore muscles, headache. I'm also worried about being sick in labor, the idea of it just seems terrible!
