Nothing screams glamorous than a mom with sick kids. I'm sure some people think that when children are sick, it's all snuggles and naps.
That's a lie. At least in my house. True, the girls are little more snuggly when ill and maybe B will sneak a short nap, but that's just the tip of it.
Let me tell you my life for the past week and a half.
Little H was heavily teething last week, Making her extra fussy. She then developed a fever that was higher than what is said to be normal for teething. It was a few days of sleepless nights and her waking every 30-60 minutes before we finally completely broke the fever.
Then Friday, she develops an entire upper body rash. Fortunately she was unaffected by it, but it was visible, and worrisome. It disappeared by Sunday.
Then, because a fever and rash isn't enough, and I may soon disgust you, she got hit with 3 days of 8-10 times a day diarrhea. Now that was a special treat. My first time in 6 years of being a mom that I have ever been that covered in poop. Not my idea of fun.
Now, let's add in some puking on Thursday and we've about hit the end of worst for the baby. But that's not the end of the sickness.
Thursday night had B up puking and pretty much laid out on the couch all day yesterday.
Today, minus a very lovely poopsplosion as I like to refer it as, and an emergency shower for the baby, energy levels seem to be slowly rising. Or so one would think. Instead of sleeping at bedtime, H decided that a projectile vomiting session was in-store; the target being me.
So as you can see, kids being sick is far from just snuggles and naps in our house. I hope once they are over this bug that it is gone for good.
Ya not fun at all having sick kids. I remember when you projectiled a few times when you were a toddler. Yuck :)
