When i had Covid back in October 21 my first symptom was diarrhoea terrible stomach cramps. So i had no idea it was Covid until my child tested positive. I was told by hospital stomach was a very common area to be affected. I couldnt hydrate and it affected my kidneys All better now though

[@SkogenWhisper]

I got really sick on my stomach with Covid at the start too, I thought it was a stomach bug but I tested positive for Covid after the next day respiratory symptoms started

Love the causal chatty videos. So happy to see you wherever you are at. Sending love and healthy vibes from Minnesota ❤

You've no idea how much I laughed at reading this comment. I could actually picture it. 😂😂

I understand the part where you're worried about being poorly for a prolonged period. I had progressive kidney failure until it came to a head last year and I needed a double nephrectomy and the fatigue is horrendous. I also had a newborn at the same time, which was unfortunate timing. I luckily had a kidney transplant at the end of summer of last year and my immune system is so low that I pick up everything and the thought of going back to last year is a worry. Particularly as viruses can affect kidney function. I find it easier to take each day at a time and not to rush myself but also reach out to my medical team. Hopefully you have a team you can reach out to too, even just for reassurance. Sending lots of love!

I relate to you so much - i love your channel it feels like I'm listening to a friend. I love the casual chatty catch up videos. I've also been sick the last 3 weeks with similar symptoms and now i thinking could of it been covid! I have ME/CFS and a few years ago it was really bad so i really relate to the feeling of, is this going to my new normal! Its so scary! xxx

Domperidone’s an antiemetic (i have it on prescription, wonder drug for me), i wonder if the extreme nausea was exacerbated by stopping taking it? Glad you’re brighter now xx

[@autismenlightenment]

Im glad your mental health wss not affected by weaning. Im amazed when i hear about kids who self wean like that. Mine is 3 yrs and 4 months. Finally night weaned and sleeping through night for the first time ever. Glad things are smoothing out for you.

[@MinimumViablePicnic]

Pretty sure I had the same virus as you, also think it was covid, it also upset my stomach, and as a chronic illness recoverree i also spiralled!! It's terrifying isn't it, I just find fatigue completely impossible to deal with on an emotional level

[@livig6601]

Hi, so glad your feeling better! Loving the casual chatty series you are doing. I know in the past you have talked a lot about the Uk education system and being 'unschooled' and wondered what your plan were for your son moving forward?☺

[@teganmartin8751]

Would love a video on any processes you have to streamline your day. I have two littles and find it so hard getting out the door and getting stuff done, and I have a husband helping me. I imagine you have had to develop some strategies since you can’t just pass the baby to someone else. Always looking for different methods to try out to make the daily grind easier.

I work full time in an average sized company.. We have 10 branches over South Africa. However I'm the only bookkeeper Head Office has... If I'm sick I still need to do it at some point, it's just behind 🤦🏻‍♀️ so it's not always better... At least I'll still get paid though... And you can feel proud about breastfeeding for that long! I stopped after 3 or 4 days 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

[@salo81]

I'm glad you're feeling better.

[@Ragdollcatlover]

I hope you have a better run of good health now 🤞

[@nicolestewart]

Good to see you sweetie. I hope you feel better and get everything you need to do done. 😊😊😊❤.

[@rebekah3483]

When you're sick it can male your milk taste different for them so that may have been the issue too Edit: You just mentioned this after I commented it!

[@rebekah3483]

Food poisoning usually comes on quickly after eating the bad food... I was thinking you probably had a bug. The dairy situation is a whole other issue possibly! I'm sorry you've been so sick! Covid is definitely going back around here in the states too!

[@LilySaintSin]

Maybe you could get a part time employed job, thrn build an emergency fund. 3 to 6 months is usually a good amount.

[@SkogenWhisper]

I got stomach bug symptoms with Covid, like I genuinely thought I had norovirus but I tested positive for Covid and normal flu like symptoms started couple days later

[@c.morland]

Glad you feel better

[@LilySaintSin]

COVID can cause diarrhea.
