He's 14months and has been at nursery 5 months. Every couple of weeks he picks something up: colds, coughs, fever, conjunctivitis, sickness bugs. The latest D&V bug hit all of us and I've had back to back colds and chest infections since August. I'm so tired of being ill and struggling. On days I'm alone with DS I count the hours to bedtime.
I love my job and don't want to give it up. DH helps where he can but has a longer commute.
My boss has been understanding so far but if I were in her position I'd be getting fed up. My frequent absences have already caused problems with the teams. I keep getting called by nursery halfway through the day to pick him up, sometimes 2 or 3 weeks in a row!

How do you hold down a job when your baby picks up constant bugs from nursery?
