how do you manage when you AND your baby is sick?

Zach and I both have a stomach virus. We were in NY over the weeeknd and there are several people who were at the same wedding we were at who have the same thing.

But how do you manage to get yourself better and rest when your baby wants to be held and is sick too? I find myself (sorry for the tmi) sitting on the toilet holding and rocking him while leaning over a trash can for the both of us.

This is awful...Chat Icon

DS and I have both been sick since last Wednesday. We don't have stomach viruses but we have very nasty colds. It has been extremely hard to hold him as much as he wants to be held. I have just wanted to nap and sleep and I'm sure if I had been able to, I would have beat this cold in a day or two! I don't have any answers, just lots of Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Hope you both feel better soon.

I am sooo glad I'm not the only one who has had to do thisChat Icon

I'm sorry your both sick, its the worse when your LO is sick and your sick too.
Emma and I both had H1N1, and really the only thing I could do was just have DH stay home one day so I could rest...the remainder of the time I just catered to her and did what I could...
