Ok so last week I was due to start minding a 15 month old but my DD went down with gastrointeritus, which was so bad we were admitted to hospital twice and she has only just got back to her normal self and eating well yesterday so that is 7 days she has been poorly for (she is 19 months). I therefore had to cancel the minding last week! So this week what has happened yes I have gone down with it and although vomitting stopped in last 12 hours, I am still feeling dodgy, sick and very very weak so I have had to cancel again! I cant believe this has happened and I feel so so so so so so so so terrible for letting the poor mum down again!
The Doc's last week said I had to avoid contact with people for 48 hours after last bout of sickness so I am going by their words and also, importantly, adhering to my sickness policy! I did explain to the mum how bad my baby girl was and that I would hate and never forgive myself if her little boy caught it because, the Doc's reckon, as its a nasty airbourne virus, my DD probably caught it from toddler group she attended in the morning - she went down with it in the afternoon!
I feel like the worst person in the world
