I hope you all feel better soon. We have the stomach big going through our home but at least we got it in stages. First baby, then me just as she seemed to be getting better- I had it bad and couldn't do anything but nurse her laying down, Dh did everything else. Then last night it got Dh, luckily I'm feeling a little better. It's awful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-survive-when-everyone-is-sick#post-1498102 Mon, 17 Mar 2014 10:09:46 +0000 autumnlove 1498102@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It happened a lot during my pregnancy with #2. Ugh!</p> <p>I hope your family feels better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-survive-when-everyone-is-sick#post-1498097 Mon, 17 Mar 2014 10:07:49 +0000 Chillybear 1498097@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Call in reinforcements.... My parents came up and helped. with 2 extra sets of hands holding baby and helping get our house back in order we survived </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-survive-when-everyone-is-sick#post-1498069 Mon, 17 Mar 2014 09:50:24 +0000 looch 1498069@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I medicate. If my son has an ear infection, he gets antibiotics and he's better after the first dose.</p> <p>My son is a better patient than my husband, in all honesty. When my husband is sick, I can barely deal! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-survive-when-everyone-is-sick#post-1498056 Mon, 17 Mar 2014 09:42:22 +0000 Mrs tartan 1498056@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aw bless, feel better! I find lots of baths, changing into clean pjs twice a day, changing bed linen once a day and keeping eating up, we can normally rid the house of our germs within a few days, otherwise they just go round and round. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-survive-when-everyone-is-sick#post-1497815 Mon, 17 Mar 2014 08:10:32 +0000 blackbird 1497815@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hope you guys feel better soon. So far we've lucked out where one of us is well. But E just had croup and got over that, then DH and I both had sinus/cold things, and this weekend E had a stomach bug and gave it to DH and I'm basically just waiting for it to get me :( </p> <p>I even set one of E's apple/banana pouches out for DH to eat since i don't really have much sick people food! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-survive-when-everyone-is-sick#post-1497791 Mon, 17 Mar 2014 07:58:23 +0000 mediagirl 1497791@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@grizz: this has been us since Thanksgiving. We just use operation: survive. TV is okay. Going outside in the rain, as long as we are all bundled up is okay. Naps at 10am are okay. Parents laying on the couch while toddler plays on the floor is okay. Whatever is okay, just survive. It sucks. I hope you're all better soon!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-survive-when-everyone-is-sick#post-1497783 Mon, 17 Mar 2014 07:56:22 +0000 Alivoo01 1497783@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Staying in bed all together and calling on friends to bring us food.</p> <p>Hope y'all feel better soon!! *hugs* </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-survive-when-everyone-is-sick#post-1497202 Sun, 16 Mar 2014 19:10:07 +0000 avivoca 1497202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Honestly? We did the same as you. Bed sharing, way too much screen time for the baby, and way too much takeout for the parents. No chores got done with the exception of feeding and walking our pets. We went through a box of sposies because we were too sick for laundry. Once the baby felt better, it was easier because we could tag-team it, but for a few days it was unbearable. It got better once we could send her to daycare again. </p> <p>I hope you guys feel better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-survive-when-everyone-is-sick#post-1497198 Sun, 16 Mar 2014 19:07:53 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 1497198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>YUCK. This is us at the moment. DH is the healthiest of the three of us (so he can manage to make pizza/pick up food). I have a cold and an ear infection, LO has a cold, wicked cough, and vomiting/diarrhea. Our house is one big germ. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-survive-when-everyone-is-sick#post-1497191 Sun, 16 Mar 2014 19:04:04 +0000 Charm54 1497191@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ahh!! The worst!! Luckily we haven't all been sick at the same time... Last time it was me, then dh, then dd. No fun... Feel better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-survive-when-everyone-is-sick#post-1497167 Sun, 16 Mar 2014 18:56:52 +0000 swedishfish 1497167@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Feel better!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-survive-when-everyone-is-sick#post-1497163 Sun, 16 Mar 2014 18:55:29 +0000 HLK208 1497163@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh my goodness :( that's so rough. We've unfortunately been there a lot. Bed sharing is great and has helped us. Nursing was also so helpful (it stinks now that E is done with nursing). Sometimes family helps but that's kind of rare. I don't have any real advice, just get into the doctor if you haven't already and hang in there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-survive-when-everyone-is-sick#post-1497162 Sun, 16 Mar 2014 18:53:30 +0000 mrsjyw 1497162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Omg we're JUST getting over this. All three of us + my mom who watches ds hsd awful head colds this wk.</p> <p>It was literally tag team abd divide and conquering. Napping when ds napped and going to bed whenever we got the chance. Thabkfully ds had it the least abd slept pretty normal. </p> <p>All three adults were doped up on every cold med there was this wk. And it's still lingering. Ugh.</p> <p>Get well soon e family!! Huggggs </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-survive-when-everyone-is-sick#post-1497158 Sun, 16 Mar 2014 18:50:38 +0000 Boheme 1497158@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our house is an abyss of sickness at the moment. DS has a cold, double ear infection, and diarrhea, I have a sinus infection, stomach bug, and double ear infection, and DH has a sinus infection and a stomach bug as well. We are a sad sight right now. DH and I desperately need sleep, but DS keeps waking with ear pain and tummy pain :( I've resorted to bed sharing again since we're in survival mode.</p> <p>Have you ever had a point where EVERYONE in your house was sick? How did you deal? </p>
