Kids always poorly

Is anyone else at the moments kids seem to be poorly nearly every week at the moment, in December we had flu A and my toddler was treated for sepsis and meningitis at the same time, and we have had colds, sore throats and coughs and last
week coughs and sore throats and now he is running a temp a week after the cough! Literally feel like it’s one thing after the other right now!

Yes I feel exactly this way. Mainly just my youngest who literally seems to go a week between catching something new. it’s relentless ☹️

Isn’t it!! My youngest is 2.5 and seems to have some new virus everweek it’s draining the life out of me! I don’t know if there is just a stupid amount going around, or I should ask a doctor because this is becoming silly! I hope your little one is ok! X

Since November DD3 has had tonsillitis, gastroenteritis, DandV (the whole house one after the other starting Christmas Eve eve!!) random vomiting episodes caused by over eating and possible food allergies, tonsillitis again and Friday night taken to A and E getting her head glued back together!
I'm over it, she's over it, my work are over it!!!!

I'm glad we're not the only ones! Strep A, tonsilitis 3 times, covid, tummy bugs, coughs & colds. Honestly I think his preschool think I'm just making it up because every week it's something different that I need to keep him home for!!
We're all exhausted, I can't catch up on housework & work must think I don't need the money because I've been off more than I've been in the past 2 months.
What we would give to be well enough for a picnic lunch, stroll to the park & afternoon in the playground.
SO OVER IT.

Our house is the same,
Tonsillitis since the week before Xmas, one recovers and the other catches it, its going around in circles!
I'm over it I can't cope with the anxiety of it all, the constant worry.
