Club 3 or more Kids

I don't bother to separate. Separate to where?! Bc if they are falling sick, all the kids would have been in the house at some point in time, right? The illness would have been brewing for a few days b4 they actually fall sick. And the other kids would've been exposed already. Die, then die together, lor. Family wat . Not vacuum.
As much as possible, if the older ones are sick, I will tell them not to have close contact with the bb. If the bb is sick, I will keep her away from them too. They go to kindy, so far so good, they don't fall sick so often. :oops: to say, it's when they are on hols that they fall sick......
For the sleeping arrangements, we will separate too. -

It works for us. I know what you mean. You might think we cold or too practical, but really no joke when one fall sick after another. At the moment, I'm operating under min. sleep condition becos of bb. We have limited adult available for help rotation, so this work for us to keep logistics nightmare a min. Like for now, DH is unwell, so he sleeps separate rm and I'm with all the kids. Am nursing bb, so here I am to while away the time, till I can sleep.
Maybe when kids older and I have normal sleep time, then it will not be an issue

Hey, I'm nursing my sick baby as I type this! The iPad rocks...Am nursing bb, so here I am to while away the time, till I can sleep.
He is so fussy tonight. He is usually very easy. But he's got a bad cold, is feverish and is teething. Poor baby. Impossible to put him down! -

but seriously I don't know how many more days of sick kids I can endure...I have to keep track of all their different medications, timings, dosage etc. Have to be very careful...I thought of getting DH to do some, but with so many to do, I decided that it wld be better for me to do all, otherwise might accidentally give double dose. At most, I measure everything out nicely for him to dispense. -
MummyThreeStreams:
Train DH. I am usually too busy with the baby, and tell DH to deal with the older ones.

Our SOP will be different. -
MummyThreeStreams:
Know what you are going through. Take care. When bb had cold, I had to hold her in as near upright position as possible to get her to sleep. I can even sleep in sitting position with bb in bb carrier.
