Of course I need to reply

Not that I know what it is like as my ds problems are very different, but that sounds like awful hard work.

Hope you manage to relax

he just came running into living room screaming scared the life out of me and then he threw up all over the floor my poor baby all settled back to bed now bless his heart i'll allow him to feel stressed if his felt sick last few days the understandable

so upsetting we dont have that communication although this morning he pointed to his mouth and said ill i said you feel ill he then threw a big strop and said no not ill whilst thrashing about

i guess he really did feel ill

Poor ds and poor you {{{hugs}}}

My ds has a sickness bug today too and he is being a PITA. He and I both missed out on about 3 hours of sleep last night so i know he is tired but you wouldn't guess it from watching him today. He's still not well and I've told him that he really needs to lie quietly and rest but every time i turn my back he's up. I wouldn't mind but he obviously still feels crap as he is so grumpy.

Lets hope both are little angels are feeling better tomorrow eh

thanks guys his just woke up in good mood i done him some chicken and pasta not to heavy for his little belly and his slowly eating just the pasta but at least its something only done hanful of pasta incase it makes him sick again

he didnt eat at all yesterday but thought it was the cold he has obviously been feeling quite rough poor thing thought his behaviour was very out of character

hope your ds feels better too dusty

and i hope tomorrow is a better day too marne he has his friends b day party and all he keeps asking about all the time so would hate for him to miss it

ive spoke to the mum of little boy his music buddy and she said ok to bring him still so fingers crossed no more sickness

poor you, I guess now he's started with the puking he'll hopefully be over the worst. Something bland like pasta is just right for a dodgy tummy.

bubblagirl · 26/09/2008 16:36

yes he had a handful went back and he'd left the chicken but asked for more pasta so clearly feeling better for being sick and sleeping it off very rosey cheeked but seems more calmer like his normal self x

lol the things you do for kids aye thats one thing i didnt want us to not be in same room so i bring ds in but not into our bed have made a make shift bed on floor with him working away and working such long hours at times bed is the only time we get together

but if he keeps snoring like that i'll move onto sofa at kleast until new mattress is here then he can go lol

i recorded his snoring last night and he couldnt beleive that was him i said try sleeping through it once you have finally settled ds who has been convinced last few hours its time to get up and also been throwing up i cant even sleep in peace after lol the things we do for love

Is it the moon? Just had one of those days with DS1. Yes, we were the harassed looking parents sitting on a little boy on a bench in a shopping centre this morning because he was being rather too free with his head and feet - all because he decided the sandwich he had chosen was yucky.
