the joys of cosleeping

[mamajoan]

I woke up this morning utterly drenched in barf. So much for hoping Ruthie wouldn't catch that bug her cousin has had. sigh.

My pajamas and Ruthie's, as well as the first outfits we each wore today, are in the laundry now. I still need to wash the sheets and pillowcases on our bed, etc....

And now I'm feeling nauseated myself. I hope that eating my usual morning bagel (which I didn't get to until noon) won't turn out to have been a mistake. Ugh. I so don't want to be sick. I especially don't want to barf. I hate barfing. :(

Oh, I should mention that Ruthie has been totally cheery through all this, basically just her usual little self plus a bunch of vomit. I guess that's something.

Sigh.

So how is she now? You? I've been puked on while cosleeping before. Ick.

ugh! feel better.

Your post was followed by another in my flist about norovirus going around (basically a nasty/contagious stomach bug, from the sound of it), saying if you're puking, don't just decide it's food poisoning and then run off give it to your friends. hope it's not that, though it doesn't sound pleasant one way or another.

Considering the way this has passed from Baz's babysitter's son, to Baz and his parents, and now Ruthie and me, I think it's pretty clearly a virus and not food poisoning. Guess we won't be meeting up with you at that event tomorrow. :(

Yeah, I figured it was probably a virus, but I hope it's not the Really Evil virus but just a garden-variety stomach virus.

sorry you'll have to miss the free burritos.

That's a miserable feeling. I'm totally barfophobic, so I feel your pain. I always get sympathy nausea if anyone near me is barfy, and I hope yours is just that rather than the bug itself. I hope the yuks pass quickly through your house.

Ugh. I hate it too.
