Isn’t gastro just the worst…!? Tips wanted

DD who’s 3 has been sick several times tonight. The biggest joke is we’ve barely left the house for 4 days whilst we’ve been potty training so who knows where it’s come from!

I can’t handle the unknown of how long will it go on for? Will we get it? Do we put her to bed? Do we stay up and wait it out? Who should look after DS?

DD had a stomach bug in October so seems unfair for her to have another one so soon.

I also can’t stand the logistics of getting everything clean. I’ve changed her bed and clothes 4 times already tonight and they’ve all been soiled. Soon she’s going to be down to a bare mattress and that’s it.

Any tips for getting through it?

Put towels on top of the sheet and pillows. Get a bowl, or bucket put some water in the bottom, beside the bed and ask her to aim into it. We still have a sick bucket under the stairs.

Thanks for the tips. Why water in the bucket?

Easier to tip away. Doesn't stick like porridge
