So I’ve been getting a cold and I’ve been trying so hard to fight it off by drinking lots of vitamin C, taking cold eeze, and lots of alka seltzer cold and flu. But I think it’s starting to win because my body is so tired. Not only have I barely slept in a month because of the new baby but now I’m getting sick and I think my body just gave out because last night my husband woke up for our crying son because I didn’t wake up. No I didn’t take any night time medicine I would NEVER do that. I tried explaining to him that sometimes the body just gives out and I guess I was in such a deep sleep because my body needed to be because I was sick. Good thing is my son is starting to sleep from 9-3 approx, and then eating and sleeping until about 7. So it’s getting a little better. I am still praying for his first night of a full on 8 hours because I feel like I’m dying most days from sleep deprivation. Not to mention what it does to your immune system.

Anyways moral of the story? Ladies if you’re starting to get sick, do not over do it, find some help and LISTEN to your body. Rest equals recovery and your baby needs you to be well.
