So, my nightmare is happening. My son has just come in to our bed saying he feels a bit s* and his tummy hurts a bit.
Luckily my husband is here so like the bad mum I am I have come down to the sofa and my son is upstairs with my husband. I have managed to take a drink of water up for him and a bowl and I have put blankets and towels over the side of the bed he is laying in (my side). I'm not sure if he has actually v* yet as I am out the way but he did look very pale and was shaking. My husband reckons he won't v* and he thinks I have panicked him in to thinking he will (bad mum points again). I know when he's genuinely poorly and there have been a couple of kids off in his class with v*, he escaped all 2016 without v* so it must be about due for him. I remember earlier on last year he was like this n* on and off and pale but he didn't end up v*. There's no way he will escape v* this time.
My husband isn't scared of v* so he will not be careful with hygiene I know for a fact! Therefore, we are all doomed aren't we?!

Oh no! The last time I had a sv,* I did v* on the floor and my mom had to clean it up. She also sat with me in the bathroom when I v*ed a few times. She never got sick from that. (Neither did my dad, who was in the house with us even if he wasn't cleaning up the v.*) So your husband might not even get it (if your son DOES have a sv*), and you almost definitely won't get it, because you won't be cleaning up the v* or around your son when he v*s. Hope he feels better soon, keep us updated! Xx

TMI but I have never even once v* into a toilet. It's been on the floor, a bowl, or the sofa (yes, it was gross). Every time, my mom (sometimes with my dad's help) has cleaned it up and not even once has she caught it from me. Just letting you know you're not doomed!

Thank you!
I dont ever remember my parents or sister catching anything from me and vice versa but you hear of so many people saying it has gone through the whole house and it freaks me out!
I am going to be on edge for the next couple of weeks now playing the waiting game!
I have text husband and son hasn't v* yet but I'm not sure if he would tell me anyway as he knows I will get myself in a state and not sleep. I can hear them talking so he's still wide awake x
I feel n* now and my tummy is gurgling but I'm pretty sure it's anxiety, I have taken an anti emetic anyway

Just stay calm and clean and it'll all be over before you know it

Hi Kirbear, I'm sorry to hear this has happened you must. E exhausted! Try to remember that it's harder for adults to contract from kids and also that you are an emet, so your cleaning is a lot more foolproof than anyone else's. I hope you get some sleep soon.

Just anecdotal stuff.
My parents only caught 1 virus from me and it was because I v* right next to/on them. My siblings also caught that one, so 5 of us had it. Gross. But my other illnesses? Parents never caught and we've always only had one bathroom in our houses including this one. My poor mom had to clean up several of my messes...by hand...on carpeting...with her face less than a foot away from my v*.
Also, my boyfriend's mom CAUGHT BF'S V* MID AIR WITH HER HANDS when he was sick as a child...never caught whatever he had. From talking to him and his parents, I don't think any stomach bugs went around his house...maybe like, one as with my family.
I don't know, man. Whenever I see whole families taken out 1-2x/year I scratch my head because that's so foreign to me.

Well, my son has just come downstairs this morning to tell me he didn't v*!! He doesn't seem himself so he definitely has been n* but he didn't v* so hopefully that's it bless him x
I am so tired though but I bet my poor husband is more so
