hmm I dont think this question matters anymore lol

someone at work has been in contact with someone with swine flu for a long time this weekend (2-3 days) and came in to work today. Within 2 hours Ive had headache, hot and cold, feeling sick.

But I rang matt and he said he felt the same so Im guessing we dont have it from her. Just thought it was weird it came on so quickly was all.

Seth has a runny nose and a cough so not sure. Hes slept a lot and his nan seems quite happy that he's ok. Im just son worried because he's ill atm anyway with a virus and I don't want him to get this especially when his immune system is so weak.

It is up to ten days, but usually between two and five. It could be the virus that is giving him the runny nose, tiredness etc but keep an eye on his temperature and also for runny nappies.

He;s already got runny nappies lol he gets these viruses quite a lot so it probably is just that.

They wont send me home from work so just gonna see how we get on today. Im not bothered if me or Matt get it just dont want Seth to, he's only just satrted putting on weight again
