The Flu!

So, last Monday I called Cory on my lunch break to ask him a few questions and he mentioned that my mom had called him and that Brylee had the stomach flu. So, I hung the phone up and called my mom to ask her if I should come and get her. Of course my mom is so sweet and she said that she was fine and she would take care of her. Well, when I talked to my mom during my planning time she mentioned that she was still throwing up and now it was coming out of both ends. I felt so bad and helpless. Cory picked her up and we met at home. Brylee had no idea what to think. She has never been sick and so she was so shocked as to why she couldn't eat or drink anything.

Cory had the day off on Tuesday and so they just cuddled at home all day, yes I was very jealous. She hadn't thrown up or anything for a while. However, we were still very cautious on what we would feed her. She kind of spent the rest of the week acting okay and now I think she is finally over it.

Well, not only did Brylee give it to my mom and dad but to me as well. I woke up Friday morning so sick and so I had to get a sub. The stresses of trying to find a sub at the last minute. Luckily my sixth grade team took care of my sub plans and so I just had the chance to sleep all day. When I woke up on Saturday, I felt much better and so I cleaned the house and just took it easy. Well, I woke up Sunday morning not feeling super great and so we got a sub for our primary class. This flu is super contagious and I didn't want to give it to anyone. I just rested all day and slept a little bit and then I felt alright and so I ate some dinner. Bad Idea!!! I didn't sleep well all night because of the pains in my stomach and I was forced out of bed around 5:45 this morning to throwing up and of course the other stuff. Can I tell you how bad this stinks. I put in for another sub and ran to the school to do lesson plans.

My mom has Brylee today and so I have slept the entire day, I have only been up for around an hour and am feeling much better. I do know that I will not be eating stuff for a little while. It is not worth it. And let me tell you when you are pregnant, the stomach flu is the worse thing. I feel extremely bad for those who have morning sickness, because I couldn't do that.

I do have a few pictures of Brylee that I will post, since we could have another one coming soon. The pictures are from her helping us put up the Christmas Tree. My blood pressure is still not doing well. I wasn't able to go to Dr. Nance on Friday because I was sick and so I have to reschedule. I will hope for tomorrow.


I hope that nobody else gets this flu, it is awful!!
