Taking care of LO while sick

kwinkle1980

Hello ladies, I am having a terrible day. I have a very bad migraine--the dizzy, "I'm gonna barf" type. I figured out that if I lay on the floor with LO he will nurse and then fall asleep with me for as long as I want--so we took a 4 hour nap. We are up now and he is playing, and I am sitting here being a dud of  mom because I can hardly move. 

Any suggestions on how to deal when we get sick? I am counting the hours til DH gets home.

T.V. - that is how I have made it through.  A couple of dud days at home will not traumatize them.  Just wait until he gets older, follows you around, and mimics you vomiting.  Blast! 

Oh, meant to add - Hope you get feeling better soon!  I would try to get by without having to pick him up or carrying him very far if you are dizzy.

I don't have any advice, just wanted to say that I hope you feel better. Dh and I had some kind of bug about a month ago and it was awful. I don't kow how we functioned.
