Hi girls
So glad to see al the appts have gone well so far. I only have my next one on the 20th of April, a day before I'll be 20 weeks pregnant.
Still struggling with the cold, but last night I tried something new: Applied some Vicks Vapo Rub to the soles of my feet and put on socks before bed. Did not cough ONCE all night and stuffy nose was much better. Also feeling better this morning. TCS84, maybe you could try that.
As for prenatal vitamin, I am on one and the doctor is happy with it. Just doesn't seem to positively affect my immune system, though...doc says all I can do for that is eat plenty of fruits and veggies or drink lots of juice, and drink lots of water. Someone suggested something called "jungle juice," which is usually good for breastfeeding, but also boosts your immune system.
We bought a Chelino Apache pram-carseat-campcot combo at BabyBoom at 13 weeks for R3 199. A bit early, but it was an excellent bargain. We are still looking at cots and compactums. We have time since we won't be making a baby room before the birth - we're moving in the 1st two months afterwards.
Also, my little miracle baby seems to have temporarily cured my insulin resistance since my blood test for it came back all normal for the first time in years! What a blessing!!
