The Day After

It's the day after Christmas and I'm feeling like a bit of a sore throat might be coming on. J & D's 23 month old was ragingly sick today and we were with them last night. I didn't spend a lot of time with him, but he was coughing a bit. 24 hours seems like too short of an incubation period so I'm looking backwards a bit more...maybe to Christmas Eve. I am willing to bet one of our guests was sick and didn't mention it. Sigh. I really wish people would stay home when they're sick.

Well, it's lots of Chinese herbs and turkey soup for me. Hopefully this one goes away really fast. We've got a terrible flu going on in our area called "The Silicon Valley Flu". Apparantly it's the one that nearly everyone in California is sick from. I read somewhere that getting the flu when you're pregnant is correlated with having schitzophrenic children (or something equally disasterous). Hopefully there's no effect to antral follicles when sick.

Oh...Dr. Z wrote today and said that the EPO and vitez (chasteberry) won't interfere with the functionality of my birth control pills. Good to hear. He even encouraged me to keep on taking them. :-) BMT was up today to 98.3...so the BCPs have kicked in.
