I think I"m sick!
I haven't been feeling great, but Charlie has been really sick and I think he finally wore me down. I had a horrible headache this morning and can feel my temperature spiking over the course of the work day. Gonna head home and rest, I guess.
What do you do when you're feeling sick? Take medicine? Watch TV? Sleep?

When my kids get sick, I make sure I load up on airborne/vitamin c just to give my immune system a boost and hopefully not catch whatever they have. On the onslaught of a cold, I do the same. Getting rest with kids these days is a bit tough. So I would probably take some meds to hopefully nip it in the butt quickly.
hope you feel better!

I've been fighting sickness for the last few weeks. Lots of hot water, herbals teas, orange juice. Lots of sleep. Vitamins. Airborne. I don't take medicine because everything always makes me really tired. Not unless it is a headache in which case I take Tylenol.

LO caught a cold last week and now I think I have it. Headache, sore throat, body aches...There's nothing much I CAN do except to rest as much as possible, drink orange juice, and eat well. Luckily, LO took a 3-hour nap this morning, which meant so did I. It helped.

Well, lately I never feel good stupid migraines. If I can't find someone to watch lo I tough it out, unless it's super bad and hubby will come home. I take tons of meds and try to lay in a dark, quiet room. I feel so bad for my lo because she's always in the dark.

I take 1000mg vitamin C, drink TONS of water and OJ and I sleep! I also pop 2 tylenol.

Hot baths and showers followed by a nap always makes me feel better.

Lots of sleep, vitamin C, zinc, and whatever food I can stomach -- usually soup. If I have a cold, then a steamy hot shower helps a lot too.

I usually take a full 2 days off work (or WFH) and force myself to rest the entire time, even if I'm feeling better. That is really the only thing that helps!
I'm sick right now too, I had a virus last week and thought I got over it. My doctor called me today and told me I have a staph infection!! I caught it at my nephew's bday party..

@mrbee: I know, lol! I had a really bad sore throat that turned into a cough, but this past weekend I started feeling a lot better. I do still have a headache and congestion and my throat is really dry - basically cold symptoms. My doctor is calling in antibiotics for both me and DH so I"m sure I'll be 100% soon.
I hope you feel better soon - tis the season!

I crawl into bed early with a big glass of orange juice and give into any and all cravings. Your body knows what you need when you're getting or are sick!
