Looking after two sick DC solo

Both kids are sick - DS (1) has been vomiting since last Friday & still going but very slowly improving, DD was sent home from nursery today with diarrhea. So they’re both at home with me tomorrow & Thursday atleast, and possibly beyond till their better. DH is away with work.

Any tips on how to get through the day?? DS is basically attached to me all day at the moment as he’s breastfeeding and also miserable and sick, DD is constantly running to the loo and also poorly and needs lots of cuddles. How the hell am I going to comfort them both & give them the support they need while poorly?

also - DS will need atleast 2 naps which are usually carrier naps outside as I can’t get him to sleep in the house.

Any advice welcome!! Thank you

Lots of hand washing as you do not want to be sick either.
