Almost 24 weeks pregnant vs. in bed since Sunday with either the flu or a really nasty virus. Thankfully, I have medicine to help me keep down fluids and the fever controlled to protect the little one... but man, oh, man, I feel absolutely terrrrrrrrible!! Half the time I spend in bed trying to sleep this off and half the time I spend just laying on the bathroom floor, cuddled up in blankets, with my head on a pillow listening to the shower run. It's funny how this tiny little bathroom is one of the most relaxing places on earth for me!
Every 8 hours I take medicine that lowers my fever and makes the nausea go away and for about 2 hours I feel like a ravenous pregnant woman who hasn't eaten in days and THERE ARE SO MANY PICTURES OF FOOD ON FACEBOOK... So I sip water and eat ice chips dreaming of tacos. And then the medicine wears off before the time when I'm able to take more and I can barely stand the thought of food and THERE ARE STILL SO MANY PICTURES OF FOOD ON FACEBOOK!! Hahaha!
Ps- Thanks to the best husband for being superman. Yesterday he took me to the dr., cared for a toddler with a fever, and cleaned up dog puke in the house and gave the 2 dogs baths after they had an ornery day in the yard. And BIG thanks to my mom who came and helped today!
I got out of the shower and sent Tony a text with this picture that said, "I feel as good as I look-- REALLY AWFUL" ... and it all went downhill from there and I've been so sick since.
