god i am miserable. we were meant to go to a farm on the weekend, and to visit my Dad on his birthday, but DS was ill all weekend. Today is the first time i've left the front door since Friday.

I spent all weekend cleaning up sick and poo. I lost count of how many times i was pooped on.

Now i feel ill. Queasy, headache, bloated IBS tummy, house that needs a good clean, the last bridesmaid dress i need for my wedding is out of stock, my skin and hair look like crap, stuck home alone today.

I need a cuddle.

And some leek and potato soup for some reason

Poor thing!

Lots of sympathy for you. Is DS better now?

Can you get yourself a nice warm bath with a book so you at least feel a bit pampered?

have managed to get him to childminders today because he's better. CM nearly fell over when she saw the state of me.

Hot water is on as we speak. I know there's paracetamol here somewhere and i can't bloody find it!

Yay! Nice soak in the bath will make you feel more normal in no time. My DD is at nursery today so i have all day to myself!! DOn't know what to do with my time though... Seem to have spent over an hour on Mumsnet already
I'd best go off for a shower myself as I have to see the midwife this afternoon and would like to not look like an utter skank! Am still in my nightie... Well, I guess pregnancy does make you tired

Have a nice bath and then try to relax for a bit.
