Ok so so far ds3 has given it to ds2 - the rest of us are unaffected,
symptoms = cough, runny nose paint red cheeks and loose bowels.

Cure - sleep and calpol

Mine is chronic sick and diarrhea (sp?) - so far ds2 has passed it to dh. ds1 and me currently safe....but for how long!

Keep a way!

My dh has given it to dd1, dd2 seems unaffected must be those b/feeding anti-bodies I hear about. Dh behaving appallingly like a child, endless stream of tissues and dirty linen, feel like Florence f***g Nightingale and praying I don't get it as house likely to self combust.
On the plus dd1 is back to pre-school tomorrow and think she should be well enough.

DD is healthy, but grumpy (overtired). I, on the other hand, feel like I've been hit by a truck full of vodka and NZ Sauvignon Blanc

I'm painting a black cross on the front door and as I keep being puked on I am in no fit state to go anywhere. Poor dh doesn't know whether he is coming or going and has just whacked his face on the bathroom door in his haste to get there in time - bless.

ds2 is a little better but cant keep anything down still. Oh the joys of parenting...nursing...cleaning and slopping out...yuk!

I have just started to get over it - DP is unaffected - probably because he hasnt been near us enough to catch anything as he is always ouy (grrr)

Baby is still snuffly but on the mend and DD just has cute husky voice

DH had the trots the night before last, I put it down to something he'd ate but on reflection it could have been a dodgy bug. Everyone else in the house has managed to avoid it.

Aw, bless, I've BTDT so many times, I really feel for you all. Stomach bugs have to be The Worst Thing about having children. Get well wishes coming your way, everyone.

Just lethargy here really and snot.

DD has passed it to me and DP. She has a constantly runny nose and hates getting it wiped. I have an absolutely thumping headache and DP is generally feeling lousy.

Poor you. at least in our house we are not affected...

I wou;d like to add that we have had a lovely w/e though - really lazy and warm and friendly - funny how all staying in can sometimes be great

i have a kid with the lurgy. lots of puke, snot and even blood where she ran inot a wall earlier, so snot and blood pouring out of one nostrail. how long does it last??

rivers of snot in the princess household. me, ds1, ds2, dh. only dd and the dog are alright.
but no puking thank god

has anyone's ds/dd had hand foot and mouth disease!!?!?!?!?
horrified when ds got it ages ago.
v common apparently

mmmmmmmmmmmm...my dd has a stinking cold.went to a posh wedding this weekend and WISH i'd stayed home, tissues galore, lots of small talk with complete strangers and me and dd stuck in a hotel room from 5ish!..(we did jump around on the bed though and ordered room servicei felt like Julia Roberts in pretty woman........)

Ok so I spoke to soon - very sore throat. funny ears and I am expecting a royal visit on wed!!

our household is grim at the moment - DS1 has been ill for nearly 2 weeks (started with lethargy and temperature, developed into cold and cough, now just grumpy). DS2 & DS3 and DH got it last weekend (all feverish and runny noses and coughing fits and grumpy) - me I've had it since Wednesday (very grumpy ). Little sleep for anyone because repeated coughing fits through the night.

By all accounts this thing last 2 weeks so we still have a week to go , but at least DS1 should be out the other side soon.

Where did my happy little boys go ? .....

ditto throck..... friend said hers got better and then relapsed...

does this mean that we will get past xmas ow without another family lurgi?

We're starting second week of this. DH and ds1 mainly recovered but ds2 miserable still. He has had one proper meal in the last eight days, cough, cold, loose bowels, not sleeping. But we're not as bad as some as you - so far I've been fine, just a bit fed up with it.

We've all had it for 1 week + though dh didn't get the runs dd & I did.

Bored of feeling ill.

have a nose running like Red Rum.

Have jsut sniffed otrivine - will that help?
