I have been running a fever for 2 1/2 days now, with a deep cough and head congestion. plus I'm in my 7th month of a pregnancy.

I have no koichos to clean up my house, which is basically trashed. I have not done a complete daavening since I took sick and I haven't kept up with my daily learning, either. I feel like I don't have the energy to focus on the learning and the daavening. so I feel spiritually bereft, too.

my husband has been tremendously helpful but now he's getting sick, too. I have to keep moving so I can keep my family together, school and doctors appointments, supper and homework, and all I want to do is lay around under a blanket all day.

I feel really sad and yucky, and I just want your hugs and support. thanks.

Well, here are {{{{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}}}}}}. Refuah Shlema.
The good news is that it's still far off enough from Pesach that chance are you will have made a complete recovery by the time the heavy duty work gets started. I know you're falling behind now, but some of us have barely gotten started anyway.
I made Pesach once when I was in my 8th month with contractions. It was very, very hard. And just as we were about to change over the kitchen my husband's uncle passed away and he had to just leave me there in the middle of everything and go to the levaya.

Hang in there and have a speedy and full recovery!

it's tough when the mom needs to keep on going despite illness ... earlier in the season I had to take my dd to the er while I had high fever ... I was almost relieved they admitted her so we could both get better ...

lots of tea ... vitamin c ... and
