Nolan has become a cranky, clingy baby lately and I can only imagine it's teething, he is sooo not himself. Just this morning not a single thing would soothe him other than me holding him while he sucked his paci.
Well I had to leave him at daycare as usual today and I am a sobbing mess at work because I know how miserable he is and will probably only be comforted by me.
The director just called to ask about Tylenol and said that he is not happy.
I just want to flip my desk over in a hulk rage, and run out of here screaming and never come back. I am so envious of all of you who get to snuggle your sick babies because you get to SAH. I am just so sad over this today .
I totally sympathise with you. Monday was like this for us. I got a phone call asking where the motrin was with a crying baby in the background. I was so tempted to leave work. I really should have because I got nothing done.

Hugs momma.
I can't focus on anything at work today, and I still have 6 hours to go, this is torture. It's so not fair, and I can only imagine that poor baby just crying and crying there because they can't spend the time that I could to soothe him. It Breaks.My.Heart.
How do you handle working when your child is sick?
Charlie got tubes put in his ears yesterday. He then proceeded to nap sleeping on my chest. It had been a long time since he did that, and I don't know if it was possibly the last time he will. So I sat on the couch and held my baby. And today took all I had to go to work. Because I just loved being home so much yesterday.
Damn I'm sorry, I know it's tough. Lillian has been very clingy and grumpy. She was sick all last week and didn't go to dc. We switched taking turns off and one day we each worked half day. Usually if it's only one day she's out we split the day up. you gotta do what you gotta do, anyway you can leave?
Yesterday she cried at drop off so I had DH take her this morning. I feel terrible when that happens and she usually is fine when he drops her off.

Blargh quote fail.
By the time I got home he was happily playing and only mildly clingy the rest of the evening so it wasn't nearly as bad as I feared.
L has only had the sniffles so far, knock on wood, but I am hoarding my sick time in rue of the day I need it.

I'm so sorry mama DS got super sick while we were out of town this weekend, and my parents could only comfort him so much. I felt so bad being gone while he was hurting and just wanted mama.
