He has just been sick again this evening. He's had norovirus, or a vomming and diarroea bug very like it, twice already this year, quite close together. The first time I caught it and it wiped me out, so he must have been feeling awful at his size (8 months).
Its only started since we gave up breastfeeding at 6 months, which I was reluctant to do, but needed to as I had to start some medication he couldn't have.
At first I didn't sterilise bottles, because I read a lot about it not being necessary. But I am doing so now since his illnesses.
I wonder if there is something I'm doing that means he keeps getting ill. Can the same virus re-infect someone, or is he picking up new ones all the time?
How often did you/ do you wash the toys/ teethers of under one y/os? I feel like its all my fault, maybe if I was cleaner, it wouldn't be happening. But I would have no life if I spent any more time cleaning up.
Anyone else experienced this?
And, you would think by now I'd be able to spell effing diarroea without googling it too
