Update on Mommy and Daddy's sinus infections....

Well, this morning I was miserable so I broke down and called Dr. White. When I was there for my monthly appointment last week and I was feeling dizzy, she told me to call if I felt like I was getting worse. I called and they told me to drink LOTS of fluids, take Tylenol and they called me in an antibiotic (Zithromax). AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH! I kept telling them that I was freaked out to take anything. She said Zithromax is completely safe during pregnancy and it is better to take it than to get worse. I went to pick it up on my way to work and the pharmacist, whom I know from calling on, gave me a 10 minute speech on how completely safe it is to take during pregnancy. Of course I still wasn't convinced, so I checked with many other sources. Since I am starting to feel much better, I have decided to wait to see how I feel tomorrow. If I still feel like I have the crud, I will break down and take it. I HAVE to get better by Thanksgiving. It doesn't seem to be bothering baby, he is still kicking away.

Daddy is doing much better too! He FINALLY has his voice back! He still doesn't quite feel up to his chipper old self, but he is much better. In my opinion, he should have went to the doctor, but what do I know, I am a woman! Men, or at least in my family, NEVER go to the doctor!!!Hopefully our son will NOT follow in his daddy's footsteps on that aspect. Hopefully he will have enough sense to go to the doctor when he has been sick for over a week!!!
