Bienvenue la rhume

So, since Friday last week I have been smitten with an evil cold.
Well, really no more evil than the cold everyone else has had over
Christmas, but they've been dosed on sudafed to numb the discomfort,
and I'm kinda going cold turkey.
Day 1 - tired, sniffing
Day 2 - more sniffing, lots of sneezing
Day 3 - shattered, sneezing, sniffing
Day 4 - sneezing, snorting and starting to cough
Day 5 - prolific coughing and an inability to breathe
Day 6 (today) - couch bound, symptoms receding, just had a huge nosebleed.

Not all bad though, sister-in-law and her boyf have been visiting,
lovely to see them. She brought me loads of freebies from a midwifery
conference she was on! She also had a feel of my belly and found wee
rascals back - he was kicking something chronic after that - so much
that I thought hubby would feel too - but not quite yet...
Big scan tomorrow - very excited! Been told to get bloods done again -
apparently I look like I have hb 9 instead of 14-15... whatever that
means!
