Yucky Day
I need to vent...
Have had about the worst day.
First of all, I feel awful. My allergies are killing me. My doctor says I can take a whole list of things...but I am hesitant to take much. I've taken Tylenol Sinus and used Saline spray for my nose. My head hurts so darn much right now, I'm not sure if I can take it much more. The sinus pressure is unbelievable. Is anyone else having these allergy issues here?
Then, my good friend at work found out today she's having a miscarriage. She went to the doctor and there was no heartbeat, growth had stopped. I'm so distraught over this as she was only 1 month behind me. I've been crying all frickin day long and I know that is not good for me or the baby or my head...
So say some prayers for my friend and send happier thoughts my way...
Thanks for listening...my husband just is not getting it at this point...ahhh, men.....
Re: Yucky Day
I'm so sorry you're having such a rough day. I don't really suffer from allergies so I can't relate but I do get awful migraines so I can understand the pressure you're talking about. Hopefully it will pass soon and you'll be feeling back to 100%.
I'm also sorry to hear about your friend. Everytime I hear a story about a woman having to suffer through a miscarrage it breaks my heart. One of my co-workers just told me that the reason she had been out for the past week was because she had a miscarrage. I'll definitely say a prayer for her and for you as well. Hope you have a relaxing weekend!
Sorry your day was so yucky. I'm also so sorry to hear about your friend. That truly sucks. I have had the most emotional pregnancy and can tell you from experience that cry and stressing isn't good for the baby. I find that I get more braxton hicks contractions than anything else when I cry. They are kind of uncomfortable but not painful. My husband never understood why I was so emotional. It's only in the last week that he has come to realize I am REALLY pregnant. Too funny!
As far as allergies go, I also have never suffered but the doctor did tell me that the regular claritan is ok to take and regular tylenol. Your doc may say different but that was the info passed on to me. Like Kandis I have migranes and got migrane medication from the doc. They can be really bad.
I hope your weekend is much better than yesterday!
