Keeping baby entertained while you’re sick

I already feel like I don’t do enough with my almost 11mo but now I’ve caught her cold 😅 we missed her sensory class yesterday because she was still feeling rough but managed to run errands. It’s hard enough getting out of the house where she has three meals and two naps a day so I feel like we have a very small window to do anything. Today my husband gets home late as well so I’m already dreading being stuck in the house all day 😵 how do you manage to look after and keep baby occupied when you don’t feel good/can’t go anywhere?

We all got really sick last month, high temperatures, fluey, snotty, the whole shabang. Started with my son and then we all fell soon after. I usually really limit screen time, he's allowed 30 minutes of Ms. Rachel a day while I cook dinner but last month for 2 days she basically co-parented with us and I feel zero shame, you gotta do whatever you can to get through the day

I can see myself in the @Megan comment. My LO has been poorly since weekend, yesterday my partner started with D&V bless him. I wasn't feeling great myself but bless Ms Rachel 😅 I needed to cook for all of us and sort the house which was in a state 🙄days aren't days and I know today it will be better 😅

We are the same at moment, LO has hand foot and mouth from his nursery settling in days. He’s on the mend now, but now both me and daddy have sore throats and colds. Dont feel any guilt, it’s temporary and do what you need to do. Miss Rachel and Bluey are currently our childminders 😂
