How are you and your son this morning Janty?

[Janty]

He is better now thanks...my tummy is still dodgy but no more vomiting. Hopefully both of us will be ok for the weekend.

Gives us an excuse to see which of the ex-batts is laying...it seems to be poor Holly laying all of the eggs at the moment. She did 'eat for England' when she laid todays.

Glad you're feeling better, take it easy today, the weather is awful so what better excuse to curl up by the fire with a book, or browse the forum

[The Dogmother]

Glad to hear you're both feeling better Janty.

Poor you. I hope you're both back to full health soon.

 

We all had this in November and it was awful. One night I had to get up and dash to the loo, then fainted and fell off. OH found me on the bathroom floor. One hour later ES dashed across the landing shouting 'Mummy, Mummy, my bottom's exploded!' . I was too weak to get out of bed so that job fell to my darling husband too. He really is a saint. Next day, he went down with it too, followed by YS - we quarantined ourselves for the week to avoid spreading it.

 

A couple of years ago the boys' school was closed for similar reasons - that time it was the Norwalk virus, about 60% of the children were off school by the Wednesday and they were advised to close on the Thursday and Friday. The main cause of the spread was people returning their children to school too soon, poor little mites. It may be inconvenient but it's nothing short of cruel!

 

Diluted lemonade is also good for rehydration and tastes marginally better than flat Coke (but only marginally). We were all off our food for a good week after the end of the bug and existed mainly on Rich Tea biscuits, dry toast and clear chicken soup which is really good for building you up again - home made from free-range chicken, of course!

It was a bit even at the time!

[The Dogmother]

I had it once, and didn't know which end to dangle over the loo!

It sounds horrible. Best to stay away from everybody I think.

I caught this virus or one like it when i was in hospital over night just before DS was born, it was horrible and they closed loads of wards a couple of days later, I was scared to death that i would go into labour, on top of everything that would have been nasty

We had it last year.

 

It was a case of sitting on the loo with your head in a bucket I'm afraid.
