If you are ill at work, you stay home. It makes sense of course, why would you go to work when you
are not very well? But if you are a SAHM, a sick day is usually just not an option. Now I am very lucky
as my parents live close by so they can often help me if I am stuck, but this week my mother was also sick
and so there was no option of any additional help. I was sick and I still had to look after four children
and of course it just had to be half term week and so there was no school for anyone. It has been a
long week and I have struggled so I thought I would share some of the ideas I came up with for
making it easier being a mummy when you are feeling ill.
Our week has been less than perfect will me being ill and I know that they haven’t had their usual
experience of a school holiday, but I know I did the best I could and that using these ideas helped me
to still be mummy whilst also allowing myself to recover from a nasty cold and throat infection. If
you are a mummy feeling ill then I hope you feel back to yourself soon as it is no fun!
