We’ve all been terribly ill this week. It started with my daughter vomiting on the way to school on Tuesday and by Wednesday evening both me and the boyfriend were at it as well. We both spent the whole night puking and most of Thursday too weak to move. I cried every time I had to feed the baby as I was just so exhausted and dehydrated. To top it all off, baby J started vomiting last night. I think I probably had a maximum of 2 hours sleep. Thankfully, it seems he only had a mild case and has managed to keep his milk down so far today. It’s going to take me a few days to properly recover and catch up on all the missed sleep.

It was the first time both me and Mr LA have been ill at the same time and it was quite scary to be honest. Normally one of us can look after the other or the children but this time we were just both flaked out on the bed. My daughter was a complete angel and let us sleep. At one point I woke up and she was laying a blanket over us both and she said ‘shhh mummy, it’s OK, get some rest’. A fabulous nurse in the making me thinks!
