No Sick Days for Mommies
No fair. Jake was sick over the weekend and unfortunately, we both thought he was just suffering from allergies. We weren’t careful about germs because I assumed he wasn’t contagious. But now I have what he had. And I feel like crap. Even Bridgie seemed to feel bad yesterday. She slept almost all day and felt a bit warm to us, although she didn’t have an official fever. Thankfully she’s better today.
The pisser of it all is that I can’t take a flingin’ flangin’ thing that will actually make me feel better. Decongestants don’t really agree with breastfeeding. I want a sick day. I want to curl up on the couch all day. But I can’t. Oh well, I will rally. I’m drinking my hot water with lemon (yes, I know I sound like a little old lady but it helps my throat) and I’m starting to feel a bit more human than I did at six a.m. when Bridget woke me up to eat. That’s something, at least.

GAH! Feel better soon!!
So sorry you don’t feel well. Am eating some hot and sour soup for lunch and wish I could share - - or give it to you. Sharing would probably make me sick and that’s no fun either.
So sorry for you!!!!
I hope you cohtinue to feel better. Have I ever told how much I love it when you say flingin’ flangin’?
I hear ya! I have the flu. I just know the minute I feel better dh will get it.
Dang those husbands with “allergies”. Same thing happened with Ryan and I…we thought it was allergies…boy were we wrong! My sympathies quickly changed. Hope you are feeling better Donna and Bridget….sick infant = sad mommy.
