Dd is on holiday so.im looking after both GS. Plus have my kids as well
We all get sorted for school normal morning all fine.

We decided to pop to the shop on the way to school to grab breakfast.. from then on kids are not taking their stuff when I tell them to lights are on nobody home type thing. All 3 of them just staring into space.

Get on the 1st bus baby gs chuck's up all over me . I get of the bus. Then my ds is chucking up because he saw baby gs chuck up. I go to tesco buy a top. Clean myself and gs up. Change into new top. Then I'm waiting for my next bus. Older gs falls over cuts his lip . So he's screaming . Sort him out get on bus. Older gs then drops his lunch on the floor. 5 mins on the bus and baby gs chucks up on me again. We got of the bus and have come home. I had enough.

Sounds absolutely fucking shite, OP.

You made the right decision to just fuck the day off. Get under the duvet, stick on a film, order an Uber Eats for lunch if everyone's feeling up to it.

And look on the bright side, you've got a new top 😝

Probably lots if washing and cleaning up sick . Actually I'm hoping bit of calpol will do gs some good and he will sleep for a while.

This was my first thought too - with 4?? Kids I'd need to keep it simple and have breakfast at home then go direct from home to school!

But it sounds like a crappy morning- I hope your day gets better!

TammyJones · 21/05/2024 10:23

Maybe have breakfast at home.
( get up in plenty of time)

Why?

Because no turning up until 48 hours after last vomit!! The entire class & staff don't want D+V. They are now likely all unwell so stay home.

Whataday241 · 21/05/2024 10:30

Bloody hell typical assumptions. The kids wanted a croissant from the bakery at co op. The bus stop is next to co op. It was a treat.

We decided to pop to the shop on the way to school to grab breakfast..

So the kids had had breakfast at home.
Just that it may have been easier to feed the kids at home.
Then get them straight to school.
And then have treats in the way home

They will be going tomorrow. Baby gs has been sick. But obviously he does not go to school. My son was then sick. But he's not actually ill. He was only sick because gs being sick made him be sick. I have explained to school . So they are all back tomorrow
