********* Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 It started with dh 8 days ago. Zee has been down for six days, and Moose for four. It finally claimed me yesterday. I dragged the children in to the pediatrician, just to hear 'yep, they have a viral infection. It's going around. Just try to keep them comfortable.' I. Am. Miserable. Just needed to whine.

Renee in NC Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Do you have the cough that never stops, too? That's what we have here!:glare: :grouphug: (but not too close in case it's a different virus than what we have...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what we have here!:glare: :grouphug: (but not too close in case it's a different virus than what we have...) Not me yet, but the boys, ugh. All night long with the hacking and wheezing, even with breathing treatments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outdoorsy Type Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 :grouphug: We have struggled with this, also. It's been a week and I had to go on antibiotics for a sinus infection, but I see the light at the end of the tunnel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravin Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 DD's been sick last Saturday, I think she's almost over it. DH and DW#2 came down with it on Tuesday, DW#2 has it the worst (but she usually does, she just quit smoking a few months ago), DH is getting better. I came down with it Wednesday morning. I really hope DD and I are over it by Monday. We'll be sleeping in a tent with lows in the low 40's to upper 30's...it's at least supposed to be dry. Also I would like to not be sick when I go into labor, nor have anyone sick when the baby comes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennifer in MI Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Oh man. I'm so sorry. It's ALL over the Detroit area. All of my dd's friends have had it in the last month. ALL of them. I SO want to stay away from this, but the way my kids catch things, somehow I doubt it. :grouphug::grouphug::grouphug: Get lots of rest and have your dh take care of you1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pediatrician had to double book us to get us in they're so busy. And the dr said that's pretty much all she was seeing. In fact, she was out with it herself last week.

petepie2 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 So sorry! I feel your pain! Our family has been wiped out by the flu as well. The cough and snot are lingering. DD6 is on day 10 and I think she's finally on the mend! Yesterday was the first day she didn't run a fever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coffeefreak Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 US TOO!!!! I have cleaned and scrubbed the house anticipating that next week it will be me and dh in the bed. I'm hoping not (and sucking down Vitamin C), but this looks to be a "take no prisoners" flu. :grouphug: Dorinda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tree House Academy Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I am SO Sorry! We thought that might be the case for us on Monday, but ds recovered so fast that I am pretty sure it was just a bad cold with a fever. I will be praying for a speedy recovery for you all!

Dana Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 :grouphug: We don't have the flu here - just bad colds. Dh and ds both lost their voices. I haven't caught it. I really don't want it!!! I figure I'll be sounding frog-like by Monday :glare: Hope you all feel better soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Britomart Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I'm so sorry. We're there too. Last night was (if my tired mind recalls correctly) the fifth night in a row one of the kids was up vomiting. And the whole thing has lasted almost two weeks now. Ick. So sorry you're there too.

HRAAB Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Fever. Aches. Chills. And a cough, and more coughing, and more coughing. Dh started the whole. And this after I bragged about how we rarely ever get sick. Serves me right, I guess. But I'm still blaming dh for bring it home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
