Think I have flu

[nutty]

Well I think I now have flu which is why I've been feeling funny the last few days. Don't think I've had it before but I definately feel rough! Do any of you ladys know what I can do to try and make it go away quicker? I really didn't want to but I've taken 2 paracetamol to try and get my temperature down and am drinking lots of water and generally staying curled up in bed but is there anything else I can do? I've checked online and most sites say that flu shouldn't really affect my bump (I'm 13 weeks on Monday) but any advise would be great. Thank you x

Paracetamol and drinking plenty is really all you can do. Baby should't be affected.

I'm really dreading getting flu this year because I tend to get it every year and quite bad and have to keep having the doctor out. I don't know what I'll do if I get it whilst pregnant. Stupid evil flu!!

Thank you, the paracetamol seems to have taken the edge off it a bit. Stupid bugs! Hope I'm ok for chrimbo don't want to miss out on my dinner!
