Sahm sick with sick kids does dad stay home?
My three children are sick with RSV pneumonia and ear infections. For over a week I've had them in urgent care and hospitals. I haven't asked my husband for help as he has a job to do. Our baby was the worst of the three and I solely breastfeed he was so sick on Friday he was at urgent care and the hospital and had to have so many tests and even fluid IV.
I'm now sick. Husband is healthy because he hasn't been around us even sleeping in another part of the house at night. I have RSV and ear infections was at urgent care yesterday.
At this point I'm so run down and I can't keep up with the kids. I'm crying continuously. I'm also worried that the baby will have to go back to the hospital for his fever. My husband doesn't have time off so he would have to work this weekend or longer hours when he goes back. But I have no help with the kids as they all have RSV and pneumonia and it's contagious.
Would you ask your husband to stay home from work to help you with the sick kids?
Our kids have never been this sick for thing long all at once and it's week two I'm exhausted and sick. Is it unreasonable?
