Sick Mommy

It took over a week but I finally caught my husband and son's cold.  This is the first time I have been really sick since having my son over 6 months ago.  The cold hit me like a truck.  I have been thinking though, maybe it didn't.  Maybe, (because I am a mom, my husband was away, and I had a ton of other things going on ), there were signs the whole week before and I just ignored them.  I thought I was doing everything to NOT get sick but I am.
SO now what do I do?  Even with an amazing husband, mommy does not get a sick day.  I took care of everything when my husband was sick.  I don't think men are wired like that.  My husband was away when I got sick.  After a night of no sleep because of a teething baby and sick me, my mom took the baby for a few hours on Sunday.  I slept and ran out to get more cold medicine.  I know how blessed I am, to have a mom who can help.  Once my husband came home, I was back in "mommy and wife mode."  I did cut back a little but there are no sick days for mommy!
