Oh eff me. DH sick. Again.

Seriously?  He just got over strep throat and was back to normal for like, a day. And now - a cold.  Another sore throat.  And he has already told me that he is sleeping in the guest room.

Don't get me wrong, I don't want to get sick nor do I want Sam to get sick. But when he is sick, I do everything baby wise - even taking Sam if I need to run across the street to the market. 

EFF ME.   I am never going to sleep again.

    OMG I am so sorry.  DH got really sick twice when Jack was little and I was freaking out that a) Jack was being exposed to very, very sick germs  and b) I was effing on my own.  SOOO stressful!  Just keep it together, this too SHALL pass.  I'm sorry EEEE!
    Wheee!

    Oh no...  I hope that your DH gets better quickly (mostly so you can get some more sleep...).
    Nothing to see here....

    oh crap!!! Men really don't seem to get better as fast as we do. Hang in there and rest when you can. Remember... no need for a clean house- no one will come in because of the germs anyway!

    My DH gets sick if someone sneezes in the next county.  Seriously we have lived in this house 4 years and he has gotten sick more times than I care to count.  And boy is he a baby about it.

    Maybe you need to look into one of those overnight nurse services (I've seen pamphlets at the pedi) to have on call in these situations.  Otherwise, you are going to make yourself sick from lack of sleep.  :(
