I got SICK on Saturday night and have been feeling awful since then-so bad- I don't know if I have ever been this sick before I was trying to let it run its course but I was getting worse and so I went in this afternoon. I am now on a Zpack for the chest crap (He said that even though RSV is a virus you can develop secondary bacterial infections and with the baby he was not willing to allow it to progress) He said that our county is in the middle of a HUGE outbreak and he can not count how many expectant moms he has seen in the past week with this! I also have a cough syrup with codine that I hate to take but it is so painful right now! Please say a prayer for us...Teagan's heartrate was a little elevated but not worrisome to them just showed that she was a bit stressed. Taylor is good so far so here is praying she stays that way. He said your immune system is so supressed when you are pregnant that these kinds of illnesses hit you hard!

Hope you feel better soon.

Mommy2Isabella replied: When the kids got it DH and I got HORRIBLE chesty coughs and congestion!! It lingered for about 6 weeks! Untreated that is ...

I hope you feel better soon and that Taylor doesn't get it!!

Danalana replied: Awww, man! I hope you feel better soon! I am thanking God that I haven't gotten sick amidst the breakout at my church....

CantWait replied: YIKES!!!!! Take it easy and get better.

MommyToAshley replied: Oh no, I am sorry. That sounds so awful. I hope you feel better soon.

BTW, I've never heard of adults getting RSV either.

DVFlyer replied: Had to look up RSV, so I thought I'd post a link since someone else might not know what it is either.

punkeemunkee'smom replied: Thanks everyone! I don't feel any better today BUT I don't feel worse which is an improvement from how this week as been going. When I talked to a friend of mine yesterday she said that a mom at dance was talking about how all of her kids had it (they were all there last week, the youngest one sitting on my lap to play with Bella) soooo I guess that could be where I picked it up. They were all snotty last week but she told us all it was allergies O well.....live and learn!
