COVID or Strep throat?
🕑 Added 2023-01-30 15:31:29 +0000 UTCEver since the introduction of 5G towers which happen to be less than a mile of each tower where we live and the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic Which is heavily downplayed right now my health has really taken a turn.
I am extremely thankful that I am able to provide breastmilk for my children in order for them to stay healthy and to get the antibodies that they need to fight these crazy infections but I do believe that because of breast-feeding and them taking most of the nutrients from my body, I have been getting sick a lot more frequently and a lot more detrimental to my well-being. My sincere apologies I have not been more active this month yet I have kept my promises As stated in the tier descriptions.
I was in bed for four days I could hardly move with this debilitating flu or COVID-19 or strep throat that I came down with! I am not even sure what it is. we had a doctor come to the house to look at us and I don’t think they did the Covid test correctly they didn’t put the swab far enough back and the tests all came back negative.
We first called them because we felt very fatigued and we’re just overall not feeling well starting to get a sore throat stuffy nose cough it started with my daughter she may have picked it up from school.
the doctor came and gave her a school note that said she could return to school the very next day even with her terrible cough and upset stomach just because she didn’t have a fever! I am completely baffled at why he would do such a thing.
The very next day I was in bed curled up in a ball could not move for four days out of my bed at all other than horrible nausea nonstop coughing and a horrible sore throat bodyaches phones joints ached.
Definitely TMI but I even had vomiting that felt as if it was coming from the bottom of my spine and leaching out of my spine all the way up to my neck and throat.
This is a picture of the back of my throat today. I am still very weak and just getting back on my feet today. I have severe congestion nasty green goop there was also bloody goop coming from the back of the throat!
I can barely swallow, I couldn’t eat or breastfeed my daughters for three entire days! Luckily because of dehydration I did not develop mastitis. The only thing I could keep down for three days was water and I drink little sips of it throughout the three days of nausea as I could stomach it.
Today I am finally starting back on light solids and as of yesterday I resumed breast-feeding and surprisingly my milk did not dry up!
I wanted to share this with you to let you know to stay hydrated when you are sick and if you cannot breast-feed because of being too ill and if you have no one to help you pump you don’t have to worry too much because once your baby goes back on the breast your milk will replenish as long as they breast-feed often.
I am so thankful that I am a breast-feeding mom and that my daughters got breastmilk before we got this horrible virus or bacteria infection because I believe truly I need antibiotics. I think I was mis diagnosed and because of the fact that I breast-feed my children they did not get it as excruciatingly horrible as I did. My three year old is barely sick at all she nurses most often. And right before I got detrimentally ill my five year old was nursing as well.
Unfortunately, I don’t always get to share those moments teaching about every single thing but I try to capture as much as I can to share our lives with you and to educate you with everything I learn as I learn it to help you through your own journey with your family.
I am still incapable of driving at this time and am grateful to have a wonderful other half Who helped me through this terrible illness. I guarantee it was a nasty flu Covid or strep throat. I truly feel awful if the teachers of my daughter ended up catching this thing or anyone else for that matter.
May you stay well and I will do my best to post as much as I can tomorrow if I’m feeling up to it. Thank you so much for being here on my educational patron page it is you who helps me support my family keep food on the table and the lights on in our home and a roof over our head we are forever grateful to you!
May your journey with your own family be a successful one! I hope that you are learning a lot from us!
Thank you so much for your patience and understanding and I will see you really soon! Xoxo 😘
