Help! Tummy bug!

Tell me I can do this?

Dd came down with a tummy bug a week past Thursday - vomiting then runny poo with temp then no appetite continued for a while.

Ds came down with it on the Saturday - same pattern.

Me and dh had it too and still feel a bit washes out by it all, hard to tell though as we both have IBS.

So, dh goes away with work in the am for the rest of the week - went to check on ds and he had pooed everywhere in his sleep - he's 6. Showered him etc but how can this be happening again?

So that's him off until Thursday and he already missed 4 days last week Hmm

I suffer badly from health anxiety and was nervous about dh going away and I know I sound pathetic.

Now I can just see them both being ill and me getting zero sleep - don't live near family etc - and being in permanent state of panic.

Cannot believe this, typical!

I don't know what's happening with him - he's pooed a lot today which is unlike him but until last wee while he's been playing etc. don't know if new bug or remnants of last one? He has a mouth ulcer too so maybe run down?

Hoping dd doesn't get it and hoping we all manage some sleep and no poo tonight.

I hate being so anxious and its so muh worse when I'm on my own. Feel like really crap mum.
