Well, it's official -- the flu has invaded our house. A now has strep and the flu. L has all the same symptoms but tested negative for both.....Go figure.
Now I just gotta keep the rest of us from getting it. Especially B. Since he just turned 6 months old- he hasn't had a flu shot.....any suggestions for keeping the rest of us from contracting it?
***Edited to add: M came home from school with a fever yesterday. SO, another trip to the doctor this morning and another girls with the flu. The thing is, though, that M has influenza A and A has influenza B....and L is just running a fever testing negative for any flu or strep at all..Not only do I have to keep the rest of us (K, B and I ) from getting any of it, I now have to keep the girls from cross contaminating.....SO, for now -- they are quarantined in the den watching movies. With strict instructions to stay in their spots and away from one another.***
I'll be back if I can stop sterilizing long enough this week.
You are welcome for the daughters.com link! Mine is 7 too. She will be 8 in may and I am not looking forward to a teenager!! I was one and that terrifies me!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the flu!
I cannot believe I'm reading this, Mindy! I just posted tonight about BOTH of my girls having strep AND the flu last week. O is just now getting over it. I was clueless and didn't take them to the doctor until too late because we have all had flu shots. Turns out, it doesn't matter this year.
ReplyDeleteI hope it doesn't spread and you all are feeling well soon.
Thanks for stopping by today. Hope you are all feeling better soon!
