I have been looking after my 3 kids day and night especially they have been under the weather since Monday night. I feel a burnt out coming as I am still recovering from last week's sickness & husband makes insensitive remarks that I have been doing this and that wrong. I should have done this and that. Reason my eldest is sick for so long is cos I let her sleep in bed all day long, which is not true at all. Makes me feel so crappy and lousy.

Oh dear.. Must have been very tough on you. How about letting your husband take over the mummy duties for just a couple of hours while you get some much needed me-time? I'm sure having to deal with a little one who has fallen ill is already very tiring and worrying for you. In addition, you are under the weather as well. :( Try (I know it's almost impossible) not to take what your husband said to heart. Sometimes, the male species (no offense to the other daddies here) are simply less tactful with words. I suspect he may simply be offering an explanation but did not bother to phrase his words nicely (it happens..). Anyhow, can only offer you a virtual hug. Hang in there!! You are a mummy, not a super hero! Hope you can get some time for yourself soon!!
