My Hubster is Awesome

Today was going to be a busy day.  C and I had MOPS this morning, then his 6-month checkup with the pediatrician, followed by a class at church tonight.  In the wee hours of the morning, I woke abruptly with a stomach virus.  My dear husband took over the night feedings (and there have been many lately, with C teething) while I was violently ill.  Today, I feel like death came to visit me, beat me senseless, then decided to spare me.  Okay, so maybe that’s a slight exaggeration – but not much. ;)

Needless to say, we didn’t go to MOPS this morning.  Hubster, the amazing man that he is, rescheduled multiple afternoon meetings so that he could take C to the doctor for me.  Still not sure what’s on tap for tonight, but I certainly won’t be going!

He’s pretty much the best.  Now I have the opportunity to nap while he and C are gone.

Hope you all are staying healthy!

Being Sick While Pregnant

Leave a reply

Yesterday and today I have been feeling quite sick.  Even though a friend of ours graciously decided not to attend our Superbowl party because he was sick and didn’t want to pass it along to me, I somehow ended up getting sick anyway.  Headache, body ache, chills, fever, nausea.  Let me tell ya, it’s not fun – especially when you’re pregnant.

I was fortunate to be able to spend the majority of my day in bed yesterday.  However, my growing bump is now preventing me from being able to turn over easily.  I found out the hard way that if I turn too quickly, I can pull a muscle.  Yes – pull a muscle from turning over in bed.  Man, I can’t wait until I get even BIGGER.  :-p

Needless to say, this is why you will not find a weekly update here this week.  There is NO WAY I’m taking a picture of myself in such a condition ;)

To any of you who are also feeling under the weather – keep your fluids up, and hope you feel better soon!
