This past week
was a rough week, to say the least. I hardly believe that today is actually Monday...
And Saturday was my birthday, and it didn’t felt as birthday at all... On top of that a brand
new and really busy week will be beginning tomorrow and I am not prepared at
all for what is coming!
So what
happened this past week exactly?
The stomach
bug cycle happened! And how does this cycle works...? Well, on a family of
three, when one is taken ill, eventually everyone will be ill as well! The cycle
began with my little one that was taken ill on Saturday last week. And this stomach bug cycle had a heavy toll on
me, as I had to look after him and miss work this whole week....
So, this
cycle started with my little one on Saturday... continued with me on
Wednesday... and on Saturday was my other half’s turn! While I recovered almost
completely on Thursday, on Sunday my husband was still on a mend. The little man
was sick for most of the week. So, during the weekend I was looking after both
my little man and big man!
And there
goes my birthday... cleaning up after my
little man and my big man when they were sick... Those weren´t exactly
memorable moments, for my first birthday as mum, I received as gifts a sick
husband and a cranky baby! I can try to look on bright side. I was given the
opportunity to sleep in until later (the little one only woke up around 11am,
since he was waking up when unwell, basically every other hour), and the privilege
of spending the whole day alone with my little cranky man (since my big man was
in bed for the entire day trying to recover)....
And after
this terrible week, I am having a major meeting on Tuesday, for which I am not
prepared at all! And this is another
thing that I am just realizing.... Whenever you are the busiest and crammed
with work, your little one will get sick. This also happened to me a couple of
times....! Babies do have an uncanny sense of opportunity....
But I was
promised a decent celebration next week! Let’s see if we are all fully
recovered from this stomach bug cycle then!
Did you
ever experience a stomach bug cycle?
