Out Of the Loop

I feel like i'm missing a week of my life =( ..we got 'this virus' thats been going around and it put us all out of action for almost 10 days...Nina started first last Sunday but with her track record we never thought anymore of it once she'd settled.. Monday everything was okay-ish and most of Tuesday too.. but Tuesday evening 'it' decended on us like a black cloud =( ..i went from feeling perfectly normal to sleepy and sickly in a matter of minutes and fell asleep on the couch for no more than 20 minutes ...whilst i was out cold Ben had taken Nina upstairs to give her a bath but i think he thought i was just trying to get out of bathing duties and by the time i'd gotten upstairs, which was before they'd gotten out of the water, Ben had already fallen out with Lauren over something and nothing but i didn't care to intervene =/ ..we manaaged to get Nina to bed and i decided that i was going to do the same.. Lauren had complained to Ben that she wasn't feeling well but Ben thought she was doing it for effect so he was a little put out when i he was sat on her bed holding her hair back for her whilst she ralphed into the bin whilst i was doing pretty much the same into the loo... and we never stopped.. 12 hours of sleeping for 20 minutes then throwing up and Lauren and me feeling sorry for ourselves and each other =( Luckily (and i use that term loosely) we had Ben to help us and to mop our fevered brows (whilst cursing thro' gritted teeth) ..i was gobsmacked when i woke the next day and Ben had taken the day off work but it was neccessary- there was no one i would have been capable of looking after Lauren and Nina never mind myself =( ..some use he turned out to be.. by 11am he was on his knees worshipping the ceramic bowl whilst i arranged with my parents to come pick up Nina for the day =( ..i think that day Lauren, Ben and myself just needed to rest up and recouperate as we were all exhausted and we spent all day in bed sleeping... luckily Nina didn't come back til late and it wasn't long before she was tucked up in bed too -the strangest thing tho- Nina woke up at 2am.. threw up- then settled straight back to sleep til morning =/ ..the following day was like it had never happened and i thought that it was just a one off- until the same thing happened that night- and the following night too.. for 5 consecutive nights ..bizarre!!

Out Count: 11 in 100

After the weekend i figured it was prolly best that we got Nina checked out at the docs.. so.. my out count is on the up at least and the doc says that its perfectly okay for my 3 year to barf every night so long as she isn't dehydrated and she isn't in pain.. we have to go another 7 days and if no change then go back- well i guess he knows best *shrugs
