Surviving The Kids Holidays

Succumbed to the kids sniffles but am feeling full of energy, despite them all going a bit hyper probably due to the Easter choccie overload !

Another Cold

Not impressed. I never used to give in to the germs this easily. I think my extended maternity leave has left me more prone to the kids sneezing and coughing all over me than before. Hopefully the Bio Strath will help build up my immunity again. Each cold, etc does seem to shift pretty quickly, so that could be due to the tablets ??

Got Better Quicker Than Expected

Don’t know if it’s the Bio Strath that helped or not but my bout of sickness lasted a much shorter time than I expected. It was my first ever time with a coldsore but my hubby gets loads and even he was amazed at how quickly mine cleared up (it’s almost gone now), especially as it was so huge and swollen to begin with. The sickness only lasted a day but there seem to be a lot of 24-hour bugs going around so that might have nothing to do with the tablets! I’m not 100% but I am feeling a lot better than I was, compared to the start of the week!

Sick … but not tired

Weekend from hell workwise – totally overdid it (had no choice !) so worked from 8pm-midnight on Friday and Saturday and was up at 6am to finish off on Sunday morning. Result – my first ever coldsore (humungous, looks like I’ve had a double dose of collagen in my top lip !) and a tummy bug. But … I don’t feel tired, surprisingly. Don’t know if that’s down to the Bio-Strath or not though ?!

First impressions

First of all, I scoured the information enclosed with the tablets to check that I could take the tablets while breastfeeding – answer YES ! Yayyy you’d be surprised at how many things that are good for you are advised against while breastfeeding.

I’d read that it would take a few days before you’d notice any changes to your general state of health/well-being so I wasn’t expecting to notice any great changes. Also, I admit to being totally sceptical about most health supplements so I was actually surprised to see that, after a broken night’s sleep with baby Pierre waking up 3 times on Sunday night, plus having to get back into the routine of being up at 6am to get ready for work, I wasn’t dead on my feet at the end of the day like I usually am. Results of the tablets or pure coincidence ? Not sure but if it IS the tablets, I’m well impressed. To be continued …

Just about to start

I’ve just signed up and received my tablets so I’m just about to start taking them. The school holidays have just ended, for me and the kids as I’m a teacher, and I’ve currently got a sore throat and a cold. There are loads of tummy bugs, coughs and colds going round at the moment and the kids all had their fair share in the holidays, plus loads of kids in my classes are coughing and sneezeing all over me so I’m really hoping to fight the germs a bit better now !
