Just that really! It so hard when your sick and have no help with kids.

I've almost passed out 4 times today and I'm so worn out!

My dc 8 and 3 are sat in front of tv with snacks and drinks. I've escaped to my bed (can still hear them!). Not sure I'll live to regret this decision.

It's hard when your sick with no help, I have been there plenty of times. Movies and loads of snacks for the kids and I get to lay down and rest 😣 nothing else for it, hope you feel better soon x

Hope you are feeling better! Currently sitting in front of the tv with 18 month old. We are both ill and he has a bad sounding cough. As bad as I feel for myself I feel super bad when I see how unhappy he looks!

I thought being a SAHM would be eeeeeeasy. Ha. Ha. Ha. No sick leave when you're a SAHM. It's tough. Cut yourself some slack and remember that as long as they are fed, watered, nappied and loved, everything else can slide until you feel well again.

At least you don't need to worry about nappied! And 8yo is old enough to make a sandwich, pour a drink, etc.
