it's not my fault i've nearly lost my voice! thank goodness i only had one home til about a half hour ago, as the kids can't hear me over the top of their usual noise and it hurts my throat too much to try to be louder!!

now i just have to hope they aren't too naughty before dh arrives home in about an hour lol

anyone else got this throat thing atm? both my parents have it too (it's like a cold sort of thing but no nose stuffiness, just the throat along with general aches and pains)

Yep - it's caused Shea to bring up his overnight formula almost every night this week! We've all been battling on still though.
brazen
oh no, just when you're supposed to be fattening him up (for christmas lol) too! i wish it was causing ME to lose weight wink.gif
*bunny*
A lady at my playgroup has the same symptoms as you brazen.

Yep got that along with the rest (headache, runny nose, sinus pain, coughing) and feeling miserable sad.gif I've been coughing so much I posted in the pregnancy section asking if it was harmful to the baby blush.gif

I'm also looking forward to DH getting home, kids are currently rolling around the loungeroom - not being naughty just very noisy wacko.gif

Oh no, I think I might have spread the initial bug or Audrey did anyway. I am so sorry girls.

Another one here (waving)!

Savvy, I think you and I have exactly the same glorious bug in our systems as your symptoms are the same as mine. Feels like I have one big lump of congestion on the top of my lungs and it's stuffing up my asthma big time. sad.gif

Haven't lost my voice so far but my throat certainly feels pretty rough right now. Please (hands.gif) I can't have another dose of laryngitis ... it's only April.
brazen
lara, there's amillion and one places it could have come from and i don't think we've seen you in a few weeks anyway!!

between daycare and preschool and playgroup and gtg's and birthday parties and work and all the other places we go who knows where we got it !

brazen

muppet
Ahhh heck yep I heard it was all doing the "rounds" sad.gif

Am off to put a wreath of garlic on the door and around the kids necks! It would be just our luck they will probably get it before we go away on holidays grrr lol

Hope you are all feeling better soon!!
brazen
how is everyone this evening? hope you're all feeling better!

i spent all day being told i had a very sexy (husky) voice ohmy.gif at it coming from my work colleagues! but feeling just fine, so i either had it pretty mild or it's not really a 'feel bad for ages' bug
Jet07
Yay - SHea has kept down his formula last 2 nights (previous night at a slower rate, last night normal rate), and our dear chiropractor Michael helped clear my congestation today original.gif

Heya, hope you're feeling better.

Just thought i'd say Scarlett has had this the last 2 days. She lost her voice "in the playground" at Preschool on Friday. She thought it was SOOO coool!

Although she has definitely been under the weather, and not herself, she hasnt got a runny nose. Just a cough and a very chesty rustle in her chest and ofcourse the husky voice. Weird one!

Hope all is good there!

brazen
it IS weird han! i still have a slight husky voice, not as bad as it was but enough for people not to recognise me on the phone!, but feel pretty much fine.

the kids still have the same coughs that the dr cleared for daycare 10 days ago (she did say they might take another 2 weeks to clear)
