I am so blessed, grateful, and just so happy. Thursday was one of the most beautiful, special, and amazing days for our family over here. We have been on cloud 9 since finding out the gender and sharing that special moment with the ones we love.
We wanted to celebrate all weekend , but sickness has struck. NYC was cancelled due to the blizzard, which was fate since I woke up feeling like crap Friday.
Saturday we headed to Med Express to see what the doctor could do for me, being pregnant and all.
Baby G and I waited patiently.
The verdict, a viral infection . Nothing they can really give me besides amoxicillin, doctor just said lots of rest, water, and vitamin c.
So this weekend, I have been resting and taking vitamin c.
Chocolate helps too…
Chinese food delivery so I didn’t have to cook….
And love is the BEST medicine….
Happy Sunday Friends <3
Even though I am feeling like poo, tomorrow I will be posting the BIG news to share with all of YOU! Baby G’s gender, MIMM special!
See you in the morning!
Katie xo

I hope you’ll feel better soon, Katie! Not being able to really do anything and having to wait for sickness to pass can be seriously annoying but I like how you kept your positive attitude.
I hope you feel better! My Mike and I both had to go to the Minute Clinic this weekend because we are both sick too.
<3
So glad you are taking the time to rest and get better. This weekend I spent a lot of time on the couch as well resting and eating some yummy to go food and chocolates. Feeling better this morning.
Hey there!
Im sorry you felt crummy, your immune system is doing something waaaay important(keeping that growing baby safe!) so it drops the ball sometimes during pregnancy! I wanted to second a previous commenter, why on earth did your doc prescribe antibiotics for a viral infection?!?!?! Anti-biotic medication is very specific to bacterial infections, and will have 0 effect on viral infections (if anti-biotics worked on virus’s, we would have no HIV or Herpes anymore!) Viral infections can only be watched and monitored, not cured with antibiotics. Your instincts to slow down, take care of yourself and rest were spot on, you know best how to take care of you! I hate to be the commenter that points out medical stuff(seeing as I am not a doctor) but I am a public health student, and we hear so much about the inappropriate application of antibiotics(which helps create drug resistant strains of sickness! eeek!), I figured I would ask if your doc explained why the antibiotics were needed.
Be well!

Haha! I have no idea, but I am getting rest and called my OB/GYN today to as well just to be safe, I now am taking robitussin as well, my doctor said that is ok.
Thank you so much! <3

As I said, I am a student, so Im always a fan of sources! Also, this might give you ideas for questions when you call your doc!
Be Well!

Yum the Chinese food looks so good. I hope you feel better soon girl!
