I can't believe how long it's been since I've posted here. I've been horribly ill with the flu and as you can imagine - at 6 months pregnant it's been rough. Thankfully, I'm back on my feet again, ready to take on the world.
In order to make sure that people are aware of the flu symptoms and how they can be managed, I've written a couple of articles that you may find useful:

I hope you find these useful. It's important to get as much information out there in regards to the flu, even if we've read it a million times. I wouldn't wish the symptoms I had upon my worst enemy (not that I have any!) especially if they were pregnant and trying to take care of an 18 month old.
