Oh FARK. I'm sick AGAIN!

[purplemonkeydishwasher]

IF i had to choose one downside to this whole having kids thing...it's the amount of colds, bugs etc I've had in the 20 months that he's been around.

Seriously it's getting ridiculous. Since December I have had 2 stomach bugs and 5 colds i think. and I'm starting to feel headachy and like i might vomit.

NO FUN.

Same here, i am never ill but in the last 8 months i have d&v 3 times, sick of it.

that;s it. I'm going to get a bubble. from now on i'll be 'bubble-mommy'. no germs any more!

(love your name BTW!)

funny - I've never been healthier than since having DS

Get some multibionta immune - its a godsend I tell you. Give the kids them too so they don't bring the germs home.

hope your immune system cranks itself up a bit soon - I don't often get stuff - put it down to my immune system getting good at fighting things off before they took hold.

Well at least you have an excuse to lie on the seatee and eat crap.

DH brought home some Mcdonalds for dinner! with milkshakes! just had a hot toddy. now off to bed!

me too.
1 tummy bug,umpteen colds/coughs.whatever DD
gets,i do thesedays.Her first 3 months of school though,nothing?!.
keep getting mine during my 2 week bouts of pmt-one symptom being lower body temp.Have to wear two jumpers when everyone else in t-shirts.Makes me think my body doesn't have enough energy to fight germs,because it has to keep warm(one medical theory for being susceptible to germs,that iv'e read).Intend to have healthier lifestyle as soon as i recover,to see if it helps and to read more about the immune system.Mum said i had lots of colds as a kid.I wonder if i'm 'too clean' also,so don't build up immunity.Then again my mum wasn't a germ fanatic! and i still got ill.I'm a SAHM.Hardly ever mix or even go out.Wonder if my immune sys.,forgot how to work??.
Used to work in a pharmacy.Hardly got ill!-did constant bombardment of germs keep me strong?!
Anyone else,anything in common with me.
Hope you feel better soon!-think i will take more vits.Haven't been able to exercise at all too ill.Is it same for you.Keeps going to my chest.Colds turn into 3 week long affairs.
Anymore advice/info anyone?would appreciate it.
Only have one dd.dREAD TO THINK HOW IT WOULD BE WITH 2 OR MORE LOTS OF GERMS,BUT MAYBE WE'D GET MORE RESISTANT THEN?
THANKS
