Now, this is what I call actual advice.
I wouldn't jump straight to antibiotics if I were you—but you have to realize that sinus issues and throat infections are incredibly common during pregnancy. If you’ve dealt with similar stuff before you were pregnant, definitely have a full consultation with your doctor. Ask every single question you have regarding your own health and the baby's wellbeing; legally, you have the right to know, and your doctor is obligated to provide those answers. There are also plenty of prenatal specialists and support groups out there designed to walk you through everything from nutrition and exercise to clothing and general health...
I can say I am FOR abortion, though naturally, not in every single scenario. If we are talking about fetal abnormalities or if the mother's life is genuinely at stake—then yes, it's a "yes" for me. I’d even include underage mothers in that category; most of them simply lack the maturity required to raise a child. However, I am strictly AGAINST women who are, say, over thirty, have their finances and housing fully sorted, are in stable relationships, get pregnant, and then claim: "Oh, it just happened, I'm not ready yet! I still want to enjoy my life!" No. Every choice is theirs to make—even if I personally would never opt for an abortion myself.
I’ve been trying to quit for years now—no luck so far. I actually managed to stay clean for a few months once, but then a tragedy hit and I ended up back at square one, smoking even more than before. I'm giving it another shot, though. I've made it two days without a cigarette so far. Just trying to keep my cool.
