Oh, the joys of parenthood. Poor Connor spent all day Sunday vomiting. Fortunately, it was a "daytime" illness and we got a good night's sleep. He and I got a day off together on Monday so he could rehydrate and get some food back in him.
As per our family's M.O., one child gets sick, then a few days later the other two come down with it. So today was the day. I got a call from the school about 1:00 this afternoon to come pick up Phillip. He has then proceeded to throw up every 30 minutes for the past 3-1/2 to 4 hours. Poor guy! He has been sleeping for the past hour, hope his tummy holds for a while now.
Who will be next? Erin seems to be the hearty one. Even when she does get sick, she seems to get a milder version of whatever the boys had.
I hate to sound selfish, but when the kids are throwing up I can't help but go into high-anxiety mode worrying that I will get sick. Crossing my fingers and using a lot of soap and hand sanitizer. However, ever since getting this Stupid Disease, I have vomited so much and been so miserable I think having the actual stomach flu might be a breeze. That being said, I hope I don't find out!
oh no! i hope the stomach bug is gone from your house! those are the worst! no matter how many times i threw up from vertigo, i still have no tolerance for nausea or puking. when it hits our house, i always go crazy with the sanitizers too!
