I don't. I'm tough! It takes a lot to knock me out. Today I cooked, cleaned, and worked. I usually go about business as usual unless I'm so sick that I have to sleep.
What about you? What about your SO?

Hubs is a big baby when he's sick...It's almost irritating.
When I'm really sick, I need to be left alone for a whole day to rest. After that, I can pretty much function as normal.

I'm usually tough but being sick and pregnant, you bet I'm a big baby!!
DS was sick this past week and DH did whatever he could to prevent me from taking care of him so that I wouldn't get sick too...haha DH suffers when I complain so much. And I've already been sick for 9 weeks out of this pregnancy!

I'm tough. It takes a lot for me to have to take time to rest. My husband on the other hand is a giant baby. Drives me nuts sometimes

Nope I'm tough! Like many others though, DH is a big baby! Ever see the dayquil commercial withthe slogan "strong enough even for the man cold!"
Hope u feel better!

It depends... I love when my husband takes care of me, so if he's home I let him pamper me. But since being a mom I still have to care for LO no matter what. I got really sick when he was a month old and I pumped so my husband could take the first night feeding for me. I got to sleep 7 hours- it was great. I guess you could say I'm in-between, I definitely take care of myself in order to get better, but not a big baby..

DH..... yes. It depends how sick I am. My sick is usually a migraine and if I do too much it'll just get worse, so I have to just sit back and relax.

DH is pretty good. Sometimes I think he might be suffering from a touch of hypochondria...but when he's genuinely sick, he's OK.
I'm probably worse with my attitude. I don't get sick often and get really grumpy whenever I come down with a cold. I can never get rid of the bug fast enough!
Thankfully, I've found that pregnancy symptoms (nausea, etc.) do not have the same effect on my attitude.

I'm pretty good unless I'm home by myself and taking care of my LO. Luckily I only get SUPER sick once a year.

I get sick fairly often so sitting home and being a baby isn't really an option. I almost always power through it trying to squeeze in as much rest time as possible. I'll still go out with my husband, run errands, go shopping, etc.
When my husband's sick he still goes to work but pretty much all else stops and he won't get off the couch. He doesn't like coughing and sneezing and being sick in public. When I'm sick though it doesn't phase him and he always wants me to still go places with him.

Everyone saying that their DH is a baby when he's sick made me think of this hilarious video, "The Man Cold":
