OK so a newborn and a pukie 3yr old isn't sooooo bad as long as you have a helper and a spare sling. Dh is working from home this week with dd(3yrold) in the sling while he works. I've got Bayus in the other sling, sleeping peacefully while I attend to some house chores and ds#1 (almost 5yrs old).

Toook some convincing to get her to try the EBM but she drank it and so far it has stayed down.

wow your DH is such a great guy to be slingin' his little girl while she's sick. I want one of those...not the sling silly...a dh who wants to help out! Mine likes to sleep in :rolleyes:

I hope the germies leave your house asap. We just had Ellery at the ped. office today and then..then...the nurse tells me the stomach bug is running around here and they've seen a lot of kids with it. :eyes: I hope Ellery stays safe.

What else is funny is the sling he's using is one I made- its a really 'pretty' floral on navy with pink and purple flowers, and he just answered the front door with it on without hesitation. Made me giggle just wondering what the FedEx guy must think- 6'3" man with 3yr old strapped to him with a large piece of floral fabric, lol! Oh the oddities he must encounter in a day.

Anyhow I have another sling coming to me in the mail that is khaki so that should work for him a bit better.

Yay! Dh makes fun of me because I recommend the "liquid gold" for everything! (Cut your arm off? just put some breastmilk on it!!!~ someone suing you???put breastmilk on them!!) LOL I can't win...but darn it! It WORKS!!!! :)
Lotsa gastro stuff going around here too...trying to keep the pukies away though!! Hope they leave your house very soon!
:big hug:

Gotta love the dh's who wear slings. :)
My husband wore our oldest to a Mariners game in a sling that was a bright pink and purple Navaho print. lol

Good Daddy - I love to hear about dads slinging their babies.

Hope dd is feeling better soon and that all the rest of your family don't get the bug!
