Carmen, take care of you! I have had two viral upper respiratory infections since the start of the year. NO FUN. The second time was worse and I had to take antibiotics. My fever kept hitting 102. Yuk. Just get lots of rest, and do what the doctor says. I keep my fingers crossed that I don't get it again!

My news this time around is that I have worn maternity pants the last two days. I don't plan on buying any maternity pants, but my mother bought a few things she found on clearance, so I wore them. She sent them to me when I was about 8 weeks pregnant, haha. I'll be buying one or two Bella Bands here in the next week, so that I can continue wearing my regular pants.

Gained about five pounds now, and still feeling great. I get hot easily, though, so that won't be fun over the next few months. I told David we have to try to avoid getting pregnant during the holidays if we do this again.

Hope everyone is doing well! Get better, Carmen!
