    Default Am I ok to do this?

    This morning i have woken up not feeling well at all. I feel sick coz i'm exhausted. I have pains in the bottom of my pubic bone whenever i walk and move basically and i also sometimes get a pain at the bottom of bump sometimes when i walk.

    However i have mindee with me today. I didnt feel ill enough to ring in sick coz i know most of it is coz i am exhausted and havent been sleeping well and because i have been more active in the last few days the pains have got worse.

    Anyway is it ok to just let mindee do what he wants today? For instance he is sat watching a dvd right now.

    Yes free play is perfect. Look after yourself and have a nice relax on the couch next to him.

    I would say it is fine.

    You have to look after yourself too!

    Its a one off and wont do any harm.

    I hope you feel better soon.

    Don't feel guilty - I'm sure we've all had days when we've needed to take it a bit easier but are still working.

    Take it as easy as you can

    Hope you feel better soon

    thanks everyone i thought it would be fine for one day and he is quite happy in front on tv for now and will probably fall asleep anyway as he normally does in the mornings.

    It's only till about 2 or 3 anyway coz then my hubby will be home and he said he will entertain him while i rest (bless him)

    You look after yourself that's more important than anything,and just remember it's ok for all these so called childcare professionals to say we must keep these children entertained and busy who asks the children.In my opinion every child I have minded always prefers free play,they all kick off when I suggest doing things especially the boys(Why is that?).
    So have a quiet day and look after that baby!
