I have a cold and I feel like crap. Sympathy please.
Managed to go to bed last night leaving the garage door open and the sprinkler on. Fortunately upon waking, the house is still here and some kind soul had turned the sprinkler off at some point. We are definitely very crap home owners. I think you need to be grown up to do it properly.
G and I have a meeting up at D's school this afternoon with his teacher to discuss where he's at and whether she intends to actually teach him something this year. Also a very grown up task that I'm not sure we're ready for, however if we don't do it nobody else will so I guess we're stuck with it.
H only woke up twice last night. I feel quite fine today in terms of sleep, now just need to dose up with all kinds of cold and flu meds and maybe I'll feel human again (can you take that crap when you're breastfeeding?).
Posted by katie at September 23, 2004 08:50 AMYup, you ought to check out those meds. Some probably are OK, but some aren't. Some common ones:
Chlorpheniramine (antihistamine): Passes into breast milk and babies are sensitive to it --> http://my.webmd.com/hw/drug_data/d00191a1.asp
Brompheniramine (antihistamine): Same --> http://my.webmd.com/hw/drug_data/d00785a1.asp
Pseudoephedrine (decongestant): Passes into breast milk but is considered safe --> http://my.webmd.com/hw/drug_data/d00769a1.asp

I was told with both mine that you can only go down the paraceatmol route, but if you needed more then you had to go to the GP.
