Ugh! I hate being sick! (TMI WARNING)

So for the last week or so, our house has been so sick! Last Thursday I came home from work and immediately got a runny nose, started sneezing, and just felt plain awful. Well I had to buck it up and go back to work the next day. No biggie. Friday was pretty busy so I didn't have a chance to really complain and feel really bad. We went up to my in laws that night after I got off work. That weekend was a nasty nasty weekend. It rained and poured that weekend. It got colder than I thought it would. Sunday morning I was feeding Jonah and he ended up throwing up all over me. He had just ate, so I didn't think too much about it. I got in the shower and I had to jump out and throw up myself. It was awful. I got out of the shower and was getting dressed and ended up having diarrhea. I know its gross, but it is relivant in my story. I had it about 5 or 6 more times before we were going to head home. I didn't know how I would make it home when I had diarrhea that wouldn't stop. I took a Pepto and a Immodium. It worked! I made it all the way home. What I didn't know was that the icky bug started with me and was passed to the twins. Jonah threw up once we got to church and threw up again afterwards. I was starting to get worried about it. I just made sure he was having wet diapers. He got a little extra cuddle time because of him being sick. That night, Johnathan was starting to throw up too. I called the babysitter and cancelled for Monday because I couldn't send sick kids over there. I called into work too.
Monday was a rough day. Both of the babies were throwing up and I didn't know what to do. As funny as it is, I just automatically started keeping track of their intake and output. At work we call it strict I&O's. It helped me really see what was going in and coming out. It gave me more of a piece of mind about everything. Johnathan threw up and then threw up again a while later and it was green Bile. I freaked out. The doctors said that it was probably just stomach bile because he had thrown everything up that he had eaten earlier. I started some pedialyte and that helped alot. Joey ended up getting it. He threw up once IN MY MOUTH! It was so nasty! He had more of the diarrhea aspect of the bug that was going around.
By Wednesday, we were all feeling better. I guess I have made it through the first round of everyone in my house being sick! Here is to having a healthy family!
