Anyone up? Feeling ill and sorry for myself!

[OrlandointheWilderness]

Ah the entire household is tucked up in bed asleep, and I'm in the bathroom for the umpteenth time tonight. I'm just enjoying a stomach bug that is leaving me with horrible cramps and lovely diarrhoea that appeared this afternoon while I was in Aldi.
I'm pathetic when ill. Very much so. And DP is snoring quite happily. The dogs have attempted to make me feel better all day by shoving my slippers in my face with anxious looks at me.

Anyone else up?

I’m awake. Sick child keeps coughing so I keep jumping up! Sorry you’re feeling so awful.

Ah hello @Lovemybunnies, poor child. Sounds like it'll be a long night for you too!

Oh poor you. I also feel really pathetic when I'm ill. I just lie in bed with my eyes shut wishing myself well quickly. I seem to get any vomitry bug my kids get, DH gets all the coldy ones.

I've been awake for about 45 mins thanks to perimenopause. I know I shouldn't have looked at my phone. Going to read a bit of my book, that usually helps me get back to sleep.

Awake here too feel your pain! Got horrible virus past 2 days, temperature coughing headache that my daughter 13 has had for past 2 weeks anf now my son ill too so not even had chance to completely rest as he was off school yesterday and keeps waking up! I was trying to go back to sleep but given up now and picked up my phone! Nearly impulse brought shampoo and conditioner £39!!!

Also awake! Going on night 8 of my child having an awful cough that keeps him and I up pretty much all night 😭.
Hope you feel better soon, stomach bugs are the worst!

I'm awake. I have a child sleeping next to me. She also has had an upset stomach this evening.

She's asleep now but I'm wide awake and struggling to get back to sleep.

Thank goodness it's Saturday tomorrow.

I hope you feel better soon.

@ghostbusters I'm incredibly pathetic. Absolutely hard work, DP left me to sleep tonight for a couple of hours and I'd managed to convince myself there was something wrong in our relationship! 😂 the poor man was just exhausted (works incredibly hard) and thought I needed sleep.
I need HUGS 😂 😂

Hope you all feel better soon- it’s the constant coughing at night with kids waking so draining

Going to drag myself away from Mumsnet to sleep while the coughing has stopped! Hope you all get some sleep.

You too good luck!

I've managed to leave the toilet and make it back into bed. Go me!

Also awake with this cold type virus

Gone through the house

DH woke me coughing and is now snoring

Work tomorrow as well

Awake after poorly dog woke me, he's snoring now...feeling sorry for those of you who are unwell, it's awful being ill. OP, go get that hug from your DP if you want one! Hope you all feel better very soon!

Just woken up and I think I actually feel more human! I don't know if it was a bug or not - I'm on slimming world and in the mornings I have overnight oats which are made with oats, yoghurt and frozen summer berry fruit. Yesterday I stupidly ate one from the day before and I wondered if it was that. Delicate digestive system!!!!
