I feel worse now than ever before ?
I feel worse now than ever before ?
So this chest infection has now been accompanied by a sinus infection which is all making my whole body ache and feel sore all over. I can’t sleep cos I wake up in coughing fits despite my efforts with sleeping propped up which sometimes results in vomiting cos of all the coughing. Now this sinus thing has my head pounding beyond anything I’ve had before. Moving results in pain! Panadol doesn’t even touch the pain. I can’t breathe properly, my head hurts and I’m more nauseous now than I was in my first trimester I feel like absolute poop ? ?

My sister puts baby Vick’s on her feet and then socks on to sleep at night and she said it helped her some while sick when she was pregnant

Oh yep. I’m doing that too. I go to bed with socks on but wake up with them on the floor. I get too hot during the night with them on. But I have been doing that. Thank you Mamma xx

Taking a shower, and being in the room with the steam helped any head congestion that I had going on. For sinus, have you tried the Neti Pot?

No I haven’t tried the neti pot. What is it? I’ll google it actually. But where can I purchase it? I’ll try anything to make it go away!!!

I got mine from Walgreens. It’s a little pot you put in some saline water and it goes in one nostril, and out the other. It’s a weird feeling the first time you do it, but it works so good.

We don’t have a Walgreens in Australia but I’ll google where I can purchase them from. Thank you Mamma ??

Wow 5wks is a long time to have this sickness. I don’t think I can cope that long. Glad your all good now tho Mamma. I have a humidifier but it’s packed away atm or that would be on as well.
