what does "sick as a dog" mean anyway...

i have no clue what that saying means but that is right where i am. i am sick as a dog! i have been having some allergies over the last week- just really a stuffy nose but last night all "you know what " broke loose. i spent much of the night having horrid coughing fits and so this morning i did not do anything (because i have a phenomenal husband) and i tried just laying around resting. to no avail, i might add. every time i got close to falling asleep another coughing fit would start.
i pulled out my list of meds that are okay for pregnant women and ross went to pick something up. well i am not convinced that it is doing any good what so ever. in fact tonight i feel like my cough is an attempt to hack up concrete that has made its home in my lungs and my throat is sore as all get out. my ears hurt and my body is just a mess. i am suppose to go see my ob on wednesday but i am thinking i should maybe call in tomorrow about this yuck.

THAT does not sound like the allergy phenomena that is all about us these days. Sounds like an extra special case of the yucks! I'd call for sure. I hope you feel better...and SOON! I am JUST around the corner and will gladly help with your little ones if you need me! Just holler!

Hey-
This is Ashley, Jen's sister. How did you get that cute background on your blog.

I am trying to change mine up a bit.

Sick and pregnant is a terrible combo. I hope you're feeling better now! Totally unfair that all the good stuff to make you feel better is off limits when you're pregnant!
