COVID-19 Vaccine side effects

I knew I would be tired an a little run down. I didn’t think the vaccine would hit me as much as it did.

I was mega tired. So tired that I even tried to sleep while the kids were awake (for Mom’s of little’s you know how impossible that is to even try, which tells you the level of tired I was).

I had a terrific headache all day long. I took the kids outside for a few hours and I think that made me feel worse. The sun was mega bright and it wasn’t jiving with my headache.

I had body aches that generally made me feel uncomfortable.

I didn’t want to take Advil or anything because I know it’s my body reacting to the vaccine and making those antibodies. I didn’t want to interrupt that process or dampen it, but by the end of the day I needed some sort of relief.

I slept fairly decent, I’m still really tired today but I physically feel so much better. I have a feeling that second shot just might be a rough one.
