When dad and baby are sick and mom is too.......?

Question

how does mom get time to be sick herself?

Will I ever get better if I have to push on, even harder that they're both sick, and pretend I'm not ill.

Answer 1

Hey Lady..

Awww..I know how that is! When the husband is sick, too..it is like taking care of two babies! Don't pretend you're not ill or you will exhaust yourself. Don't worry about the hubs..let him fend for himself for now..just take care of the little one as best you can! Good luck and I am sending you all wishes for a fast recovery!

It is tough. I just had my second baby 3 weeks ago by c-section. My husband took 2 weeks off to help me so I could heal. My first daughter is 13 months. A few days later both he and my daughter (13 month old) had the flu. It was terrible because I couldn't pick up my oldest due to the surgery. I was waiting on my husband while in considerable pain and my poor husband had to get up anytime I needed to lift my 13 month old. He would have to go straight to the bathroom after to be sick. Not to mention I was trying to take care of my newborn also. It was a terrible day. Lucky for me it was only a 24 hour bug. The next day I couldn't do anything but care for the youngest because I had done so much the day before and was in so much pain. When I was pregnant with my first I had the terrible flu for 3 days and had to care for my daughter on my own because my husband couldn't take any time off of work.  It's just something us mommies have to tough out. Hang in their.
