Still Sick

My body is aching, my throat is raw, coughing constantly, sneezing a lot, eyes are dry, itchy, and hurt as well. I'm going to bed here very soon. I'm thankful I'm not vomitting or anything, but dang. Oh and my voice comes in and out.

My friend B bought me some Cranberry juice, it's my favorite and I also feel a UTI coming on, so hopefully I can ward it off.

Emma is nursing like a maniac, which is why my back is killing me I know. She's not sick and neither are the boys which I'm VERY thankful for. Today I also had the chills so although I desperately wanted to open a window to get fresh air in, I just could not do it. I was sitting there shivering, covered up with a blanket and kept debating on getting another one. I ended up taking an insanely hot shower (yes I know not actually good for you, but it did feel soooooo good!) I'm thinking of taking a hot bath before heading to bed for the night to help ease my back pain, and see if I can find my heating pad...I haven't used it since before I was pg with Emma!

 

Speaking of Emma, she had her 6 month well baby today. She's up to 16 lbs and 26 inches long...exactly in the 50% on both. Absolutely perfect and wonderful. The dr who saw her just loved her, kept laughing at how expressive she is and was amazed at all she's doing.

Well, I'm off.

Thank you for the prayers.

I was so sick earlier this week with all of the same symptoms!!  Hubby was laughing because I had on leggings and pajama pants on over them, a long nightgown with a long-sleeved t-shirt over it, two pair of socks, and a stocking cap on my head.  I was so cold and I looked absolutely ridiculous!
Get better soon!!!
