Sinking as a parent

[ChaiCocolatte]

I have 6 yr old twins and a 2 year old who for the last 3 wks have only spent 2 days at school
The are constantly sick since back at school, picking up every big and infection.

At the moment we have a vomiting bug on the house and all of us have got it. My 2 yr old was in hospital all day Sunday, and yest my 6 yr old boy was in hospital and only came home today.

I am exhausted. Iv very little sleep.
I cannot function.
It’s so hard, I am very isolated, no family and no friends.
Please tell me this will pass and get better cos right now I am sinking.
What id give for a morning off away from children.
I adore my children but I’m sinking here

I am sorry you're struggling. That all sounds awful. It will get better. Sending strength.

Thanks so much, everyone says it will get easier as they get older, but when is this?
They are now 6, just saw a whole bottle of apple juice spilled all over kitchen table and floor.
This happens every single day.
No attempt to even clean it.
I’m just worn out.
They are always sick, seem to have no immune system.

Do you have a partner OP?

Can you get extra vitamins in them to try boost their immune system? H&B do immune boosting drops you can add to water and have a blackcurrent flavour. Could you get more green veg into them? A fruit smoothie with some hidden veggies perhaps or even gummy vitamins?

All of the above may just help boost them a little and hopefully give you a break? Fridge lock to stop them accessing juice and causing the spills etc? X
