Ah just when you think Winter is over and beautiful spring has bloomed then bammm! Another virus hits your house and its every man women and child for themselves, oh no wait you have 3 little humans who need their snot wiping, vapour rubbed, medicines and lots of cuddles.. Will you come out alive or go down with the best of them! I went down! Its got me hard and 10 days on A, first one to get it, still has the horrid virus and a cough that is relentless, I literally feel her pain. N and S got a mild form but seem to have been moderately unscathed! Daddy is being a trooper, nurse, mummy and all. Hats off, lets hope he stays well! 

Top Tips

1. Wash hands as much as possible (obvious I know but honestly works!)
2. Separate bottles, soothers and wash cloths
3. Prop up a coughing baby/child by raising the mattress with a cushion or books, helps coughing and blocked noses.
4. Put vapour rub on feet and put on socks at night, helps with coughing I can vouch for this!! 
5. Use Olbus Oil drops on tissues around the room and add a bowl of water to add moisture in the air for congestion! 
6. For mummy, some TLC, medication and sleep! Don’t try and do it all as usual, you will burn out like I did and then be forced into bed! 

Here’s hoping that we’re all clear for our first big holiday to sunny Menorca! Yes that’s right Triplets on a plane! Tune in soon for special holiday prep guide!
