sickness in your house
What hapoens when one of your kids get the flu or a nasty cold, does everyone end up getting it? How long does it last then to go through the whole family? Any tips.or tricks on how to let the sickness be 1 kid and done? I have 3 and im pregnant with my 4th and i know its a bad flu season but i am over this neverending sickness in my home. Since thanksgiving we have had multiple colds, the flu 2x, sinus infections, chest congestion...its getting ridiculous. I mentally cant handle 3 sick kids all at once..its alot to handle. You lafies are an inspiration with youe big families and how you handle and take care of all of them.

Honestly we quarantine the sick family members in our house. My youngest 2 share a room but we literally have them stay in their rooms. Obviously it doesn’t work for the Little’s but so far it has been pretty helpful in keeping us from getting whatever the other has. However when they were much younger(when I had 3–5 and under) they usually all got it. I also load them up on probiotics...
When one gets sick...we alllll get sick! All the way from us adults, to older kids , toddlers and babies! Its horrible. Colds arent too bad but omg one time we got the stomach flu ???. I wanted to cry. It was so bad. By the time it got to me , 2 kids had already had it and 2 more had it while i did. While the others were trying to stay locked in their rooms , but that didnt work, they still ended up getting it. Anyways, i was pissing out if my ass (lol sorry) and throwing up while dealing w the 2 kids that were doing the same as me. Having to clean up s*** and barf from the floors...and STILL having to deal w the now NOT sick kids. Omg . THEN hubby works out of the country so its just me and 8 kids. PLUS no one could come help me like my mom or sis or my older nieces because i didnt want them to catch what was obvi floating around my house! It took about 3-4 weeks to go through the entire house! Then i had to spray and bleach EVERY INCH OF MY HS. Not a small house either! 4,000sq feet of germs! Its so hard to keep any sickness from spreading when you have such a big fam. You are usually contagious before you even know your sick so i don’t see how its possible.
We all start downing the apple cider vinegar. Usually that plus quarantine does the trick. However, it’s a really bad year everywhere this year...we have all had the yuck for over a month and a half now. It’s been terrible. Usually it’s one at a time and right when one is better the next one starts. My two month old has it tonight, it’s so sad.
