If you follow me on Twitter then you probably have seen that since Sunday I’ve been battling a cold that has since turned into a sinus infection. Its definitely never any fun to deal with, especially while pregnant when you can’t take any decongestant to help relieve the symptoms.
Nonetheless, I’ve been feeling pretty miserable the last several days and while I had planned to share my Clarendon Day 10k recap with all of you today, I just haven’t had the energy to write it. Nor have I had the energy to work out. This week has just kept me out of commission.
But I at least wanted to pop in and remind everybody that today is the last day to enter the SmartyPants Vitamins giveaway. You have until 11:59 pm EST to enter!
QOTD: Has the transitional fall weather taken you out of commission yet? What do you do to try and avoid getting sick?
Hope you feel better!!
Thanks Christine!
Feel better, Kathryn!
Thanks Jenny!
Feel better soon!!
Thanks Sarah!
Ugh, sorry to hear…feel better!
Thanks Jennifer!
Luckily I’ve never had a sinus infection but my allergies and wreak havoc. I started using Flonase this summer so this’ll be the first fall I’m on it.
Hope the Flonase works well for you.
Oh no girl! Feel better soon!
Thanks Mindy!
No sickness here yet! Although I have been reading some other blogs where people said they had colds and sinus infections and ironically they are teachers too! Could be from all the germs in school? Get better soon!
I usually get sick in September, so I’m guessing the students and their germs were a big cause of me getting sick. It doesn’t help that being pregnant has also lowered my immune system.
I am so sorry! Sinus infections are seriously the worst, I hate them even more than the flu because they can last a month if not taken care of right away.
Being pregnant is likely even worse because of the medication dilema. I hope you can find some relief, or at least have the ability to stay in a dark room with a hot rag over the top of your face. I have also put heating pads over my nose and cheeks and forehead that seem to help a little. Feel better soon girl!
Thanks Kristy! My OB gave me the green light yesterday to take a number of things, and they seem to be working so far.
