Apparantly when your in the early stages of making a baby, your body lowers your immune system so that it doesn't reject the bub. Therefore your a lot more open to other infections, colds and flus than you would be any other time..
:fingerscrossed: for a BFP!!!
is that true pink lady??
Interesting u said that cause i am experiencing my second cold/flu in a week!
We have been trying for 3 months and i am due for Af in 2 days, so hopefully af wont come!!!!!:fingerscrossed:

I think this must be true!!! I hardly ever get sick, I am very lucky to get a cold once every couple of years. I am 7 weeks and I have had the worst head cold for the last 4 days, I am feeling so miserable and it totally sux not being able to take any cold & flu medication. :crying:
Hope it means a BFP for you! :fingerscrossed:
Yep, when you're pregnant your immune system is weaker. Between 5 and 10 weeks of my pregnancy I got 4 different viral infections. I felt like I was constantly sick ... and I had m/s as well! Don't know if being sick at 3 weeks predicts the fact that you are pregnant, but who knows? What I do know is that it doesn't increase your risk of miscarriage ... that was my biggest concern when I kept getting sick.
All the best!
so your not allowed to take cold and flu medication when ur pregs??
I dont know if im preg yet (due for periods tomoro) but i am taking dimatap cold and flu.
