Well I am still sick which is not fun. So after staying home Tuesday I figured I would be able to cope with work on Wednesday...no such luck! I lasted half the day and was on my way home again. Decided I may as well take Thursday off and give myself plenty of time to recover. I went to the GP yesterday to get a medical certificate and she gave me a thorough checking over. Ended up leaving there with a script for some antibiotics to start in 24 hours if I was still not feeling great.

I was really hoping I'd wake up this morning feeling better so I wouldn't have to use the ABs...but I felt the same and figured I should try the drugs and kick this illness in the butt. I am sick of feeling so miserable and lethargic..I just want to feel good again. I know the ABs are safe for baby, but I usually suffer some stomach upset related side effects from them which is never fun. I got some Inner Health from the chemist when I filled my script, so hopefully that will combat the stomach issues.

DH is now home. I don't think he was impressed coming home after 2 weeks to a sick wife, but he has been looking after me well. He's come off 2 weeks of night shift so has been quite tired and is struggling to get back into a normal sleeping routine...which is why he is currently passed out on the couch! Hopefully next week he will start work on the baby's room...I need him to knock down a wall. Once he has done that then we can paint. I really want to get the ball rolling on this preparation...I can't believe it's August already. It will be the end of the year before we know it (and that scares the bejeebus out of me!!).
