Slogging onward

I've come to the conclusion that I have a cold. I figured I was feeling crappy just due to pregnancy crappiness, but sore throat and being a snot factory seems to indicate otherwise. Meanwhile my appetite has kicked into high gear and I need to stock up on healthier food. I will not be at a healthy pregnancy weight at all if I continue my current carb craze. At least it's weekdays again where I tend to eat better. I bring fruit to work and snacks like hummus - it just seems that on week-ends comfort food like grilled cheese beckon.

Loquat is for cough and lung in Chinese medicine. Sometimes i would take the Ninjiom Pei Pa Koa which is an extract of loquat when got sore throat.

I'm catching one too. I can take Neo Citran though. :)

Feel better soon!

Oh, but being pregnant makes you a snot factory. Hormones and mucus membranes unite!

Just wait for the bleeding gums and nosebleeds.

Yours in pregnancy (due March 17th with baby2),

Rox: I love the Neo Citran dead sleep. I'm jealous.

Hammy: Welcome! Not happy to hear about becoming a snot factory, but indeed, that is what's happening.
