The baby's given me Hand foot and mouth...

[MollyBloomYes]

And I feel completely floored. Just unbelievably ill and sore and flattened by it. He of course is operating at his usual high energy self just with more spots

Has anyone got any tips on how I can feel more bearable? I'm taking paracetamol and ibuprofen (alternating every couple of hours) but it's not doing much!

We had it as a family a month ago and it was horrid... nothing to be done really, my fiancé was on his stag do and one of the party was a gp and couldn't help, he just had to feel wretched (and book another stag do soon after )
You have my sympathy:

Nooooo talk to me of magical mouthwashes and weird remedies from the spice cupboard
Ah well, suspected as much, will just have to dig deep and hope it passes soon!
