Because Moms Don’t Get Sick Days…

December 2, 2012 by OneMommy

 

 

When mom is sick, it seems everyone suffers.  (Yes, even the dog.)

“I’d rather be playing fetch than have Mommy sick with a cold!”

Fever, chills, headache…

Tempers are short when you aren’t feeling well.  And no matter how much my kids love books, story time is miserable with a sore throat.  And craft time?  Let’s just say this momma doesn’t feel so creative then.

 

But, even with plenty of hand washing, at some point every mommy gets hit with a bad cold or the flu.  After all, ’tis the season!

Since there aren’t any sick days for moms, I sometimes have to rely on something other than just hot tea to help deal with the sore throat or headache that just won’t go away…

And, like any good mom, I’m already prepared.  There’s a box of Contac Cold & Flu ready and waiting in the medicine cabinet.

 

I’m happy to say that the makers of Contac Cold & Flu want to help you to be prepared, too.  You can find a $2 coupon on their site.  Better yet, one of my lucky readers can win a box (complete with both daytime and nighttime caplets to help you rest) to help you keep being the super-mommy you need to be for your kids, even when you’re sick.

Just enter the drawing below.  Giveaway ends Monday,  December 10, 2012.  Good luck!

    I’d rather be doing almost anything than sick in bed with the flu.

    I’d rather be working than to be sick with the cold or flu.
