    Default Sick again

    I honestly am not sure that we have had a truly healthy Christmas since our kids were born. It just feels like this looming dread over us that for sure at least one of us, if not all of us, will be sick. Two years ago when went to the beach for Christmas DD was really really ill and her trip was ruined. The anxiety half-ruined my trip also. This year we are going to the beach again and today DS is feverish, has been in the bed all day, and just threw up. The whole family has already had cough and cold for a couple weeks. Maybe there is still time for things to turn around if DS can kick this quick and the rest of us can avoid catching it, but I feel pretty pessimistic. I'm spraying hydrogen peroxide everywhere, having everyone swab their noses and ears, diffusing oils, giving elderberry, drinking more water. The girls even drank some apple cider vinegar which they both HATE. It just feels like inevitable. Also we are meeting my one year old nephew for the first time on this trip so I don't want to bring any germs. We have to kick this bug!

    Thank you PunkyBoo! DS has a double ear infection and the flu. DD has the flu. I have the flu. I'm not sure whether to hope the other two get the flu quick so they get over it before Christmas, or hope they don't get it at all. We are doing all the things to fight it. I just feel so frustrated that this happened at Christmas!

    That’s awful. Being sick over the holidays is no fun. Hope everyone recovers quickly.
