Im feeling so down. My little baby has a cough and its his first...its no big deal, but its been a trying week with him being very unsettled (could b from getting a flu) and all i want is someone to talk to and hug me.<p>I rang my WH to see if he would be able to go down 2 the chemist to get me some vapour rub and maybe look at humidifiers. but hes sick too so i couldnt ask him directly, and he didnt offer. He says kids get flus. But i'm here on my own and wish i could just cry with someone...so, i'm crying on my own. Its so hard at times to allow God to be my husband and Father. I just want some human contact.<p>And I feel angry at H because hes not the one here worrying about it, and hes not here to comfort me, even if I am exaggerating. And he still wants to have our son tomorrow for the day even tho hes sick too...why am I so protective? How can I ease up or is this normal?<p>Feeling sad...<p>Dancer

Dancer,<p>{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}<p>It's terrible to see a baby sick. They cannot tell you whats wrong and look at you as though to ask why you are letting this happen to them.<p>Shame on your H. Sick or not, he should help get your baby whatever he needs. Your are rightfully upset about this.<p>Wish I could stay up and talk but I still need to get some sleep. At 3:41 right now, I'll not get much. Others will be along soon.

Hello, Dancer, I don't know too much about sick babies, but I do know the loneliness of these situations. I'm so sorry your H is not acting properly, I understand that!<p>I asked God to be my H for this time, and He has not let me down! This is a good move on your part, and God is faithful to us. I also understand needing the "human" contact, though! [img]images/icons/wink.gif" border="0[/img] <p>You are being protective of a sick child, because that's what mothers do!! Stick to your guns. You have the right to say that the child is too sick to go out. Maybe when H sees for himself how sick the baby is, he'll understand why you were so upset.<p>I hope the new day/light of day brings comfort and peace for you, and healing for your child.<p>God Bless,
