A few days ago I woke up with a horrible head cold. I have been lucky not to get sick this entire pregnancy... at least until now. Unfortunately all I can take is tylenol so no cold meds for me. I picked up some vicks and some vitamin C cough drops yesterday (I can't even have medicated cough drops), so I'm hoping that will help me feel better. I also found out that gargling with Salt water is supposed to help with the sore throat and all the mucous I have hanging around back there. (Unfortunately a weird side effect of my pregnancy is that phlegm makes me gag.) I'm hoping I start to feel better soon, if I'm still feeling like this by Monday I'm going to have to get into my primary Dr for an appointment to see if I can get something to make me feel better.
Other than that tomorrow starts my new shift. So I will be able to get some extra sleep, I REALLY think that that will help me feel better. Waking up at 7:30 instead of 5:00 is a pretty significant difference and sleep is really important when you're sick and when you're pregnant so I know that will help. I am a little apprehensive about my new team because I don't know a single person on that team. I'm sure I will make new friends, but I am no good at socializing with people I don't know, so it will take a while. That's good and bad though, I do feel like it will help me focus more on work.
I am feeling the baby move more every day and it is exciting to feel that... A month or so and AJ should be able to feel it too... I can't wait till that moment. : ) Only 10 1/2 days until my ultrasound!!
