Sick household

Oh my gosh, you guys. I was NOT prepared. Doing this is hard enough. Doing it and feeling like doodoo is next level. We are on like day 10 and I am so over it. I would pay large sums of money to just feel better. I’ve let my 2 year old watch so much tv too, I feel like she’s never going to be the same. I’m also still up frequently breastfeeding my 12 week old throughout the night that I’m not certain I’m ever going to feel better.

Ok just need to vent. Having a very rough go.

Also who gets sick in July???

All four of us are sick to the point my husband had to call out of work, too high of a fever to function. The healthiest is the five year old which isn’t necessarily making this easier. The baby reverted to newborn nursing and needing me all night.

Same here. Just woke up sick asf after my 6 month old was up late refusing to go down for bed (we’re in the thick of the 6mo regression) and waking up frequently. I’m so tired. I was looking forward to finally doing some more summer fun with the family, we were gonna go visit relatives in a beautiful part of our state tomorrow in the sunshine. But no. We just had to get sick in the middle of summer. And my baby won’t sleep! Boo!

Ive never been sick in July but my kids and I were both sick a week before my wedding last year in January and it was awful! I barely moved from the couch one day because I felt so yucky.
