Oh God I think this has been the worst day ever... feeling awfully sorry for myself

[pinkytheshrinky]

Ok so I have some kind of d and v or food poisoning thing going on (maybe due the an elderly slice or two of meat loaf) and I have been poorly since 4am with the d and v started at lunchtime. Looking after teething 7 month old and wrecky 2 year old as well as school runs and associated labours for the other two older ones. My poor DH had to go into London this am and is going to be late home and I feel like I am going to die. The v has stopped the d is on its last legs but honestly I feel like I have been run over....

Miracle cures anyone? what the hell can I do to perk myself up a bit.

Poor you.

Don't try eating (beyond dry toast/breadsticks) till the D&V is well gone; drink plenty; and as soon as your DC will let you sleep as much as poss.

No miracles, I'm afraid, but much sympathy.

Poor you! You will feel better again soon, I promise
I always find plain ginger biscuits the best remedy. Also flat lemonade is supposed to be good (although I don't like it myself!).

I have had some full sugar coke a bit of water before that and praying i am not sick again- I cannot believe how frail i feel after only one day without food!!!!! What a wimp

The 2 year old will not go to bed (which is really unusual) and fortunately my lovely DH ust called to say he is at the station and on the way home to rescue me! Nevermind that he has done a 15 hour day himself

Oooh how i love him

If it's the bug i have just had then i would ask DH to be home 2mo if he can. It has completely wiped me out, I'm not too bad today but needed to be lay down yesterday.
