Oh no you don't!

I fear I may be getting sick. Fantastic. I've got a nearly 6-month-old baby, and I'm hosting Christmas for 23 people, 1/4 of whom I did not invite. I CANNOT be sick right now, blah. My ears hurt and my throat hurts. I will cross my fingers that I wake up feeling fabulous tomorrow.

If I don't end up sick right now, I'm sure it will only be a matter of time before I do get sick. Today, as I was standing in line to get lunch at Jack in the Box (I probably deserve it for eating such horrible food), this lady was standing in line behind me, holding her daughter, who sounded like she was dying of something awful. She had the most horrible cough, and every time she started barking, I inched forward in line just a little bit, hoping to avoid the fallout. I took my sweatshirt off as soon as I got home, and seriously contemplated taking a shower. And then that stupid lady sat down in a booth next to a woman with two young kids, one of which was a baby. Hello!

*crossing my fingers for you*

My first Christmas hosting was when Leo was 5 months old. The DAY OF CHRISTMAS.. he decided to suffer from an ear infection. It was nuts~!

Thanks! So far it's just the sore throat, and I'm hoping it stays that way.

get thee some of that airborne crap. Seriously. The last few mornings I woke up feeling "off" like the start of a cold/sore throat. Took it yesterday and today and I'm not feeling even a hint of it now.

Is it safe to take while bfing? The box says it's not.

Oh no! Hoping you feel better! Drink lots and lots of orange juice. That usually helps me a lot.

Thanks! I powered down a big glass, then felt sick afterwards because I had too much :p.

Ugh, being sick with a baby is the worst. Fingers crossed that you stay healthy.

Thanks! I felt awful, but at least it gave me an excuse to be less than my stellar self :p.
