Feeling Bad

Yesterday evening I got a horrible headache that even Excedrin extra strength couldn't touch (I get these every once in a while - I think they are tension headaches or mild migraines) and then it turned into a headache with nausea and shakiness. I tried eating and drinking, but it only helped a bit.
So, I had them eating in their highchairs and I kind of just relaxed in the kitchen chair putting food on their trays. They kind of watched me like "whats the matter with you, Mommy?"
Every once and I while I would smile at them and they would smile back. :)
Then I washed them up and laid on the livingroom floor (Jason was having a late night working so he wasnt home to help). They played on and around me very nicely for an hour. It was cute watching them interact with each other. I noticed that Nicholas has started handing toys to Celia. And then Celia was trying to touch his face and Nicholas was giggling. Then after an hour or so, I changed them into pajamas and gave them their bottle. Almost right after I got them into their cribs and turned out their light for bed - I got sick.
Luckily I had them in bed and was able to lay on the couch for a while.
Poor Jason got home and had to clean up the kitchen and livingroom since I just couldnt do it. I pumped and was in bed by
8:30 pm (the earliest I have been to bed in a Loooonnnnnngggg time). Thankfully they slept until 6am without a peep so I got some nice sleep. I feel a lot better today - just a little shaky/weak. So, I am guessing it is not contagious since it only lasted a few hours.
I think it probably is like a tension-related migraine (if there is such a thing) because my neck and shoulders have been really tight lately (hmmmmm lifting babies maybe??). It isnt really a stress-tension thing.

  1. Oh no - I'm glad you are feeling better. Being sick is no fun, but being sick and having to care for twins is horrible! It's not like you can just lay down on the couch and rest like pre-babies. What good timing that they were going to bed right as you got sick. I hope tonight is a better night for you :).
