Sick. Again.
I can’t believe it! I’m one of those people who never gets sick. Yet, I’ve already been sick twice this month! Let’s hope that I’ve reached my quota for the year and I don’t have to worry about being sick until 2016. I guess that’s what I get for making fun of John when he was sick.
This weekend I was struck with a sore throat and runny/congested nose, which led to a major sinus headache. Normally I wouldn’t be one to complain, but since I’m still breastfeeding Juli, I’m semi limited in which medications I can take. I tried a few remedies which only offered temporary relief, if any at all.
I tried this one thing that I saw a video of. Basically, a mother used a nose aspirator to shoot saline water up one of her baby’s nostrils. The water, along with all of the junk, proceeded to shoot out of the baby’s other nostril. I’ve considered doing it to Juli, but I’m glad I did it to myself first. HOLY $#!+!! My nose was on fire, my eyes were on fire, and there was no junk coming out of my other nostril. How the baby in the video was so calm, I have no clue?!
