treatments with a toddler to care for

[TIN]

Hi, I'm a long time lurker... peeking out to post tentatively:

How I wished for a thread like this when my older son first became mobile! He's 4 now... And my little one is 2 and loves playing with my vest/neb while I'm trying to do my treatment. I set up my vest in our "toy room" so that the kids can play and watch videos while I take care of myself. It usually works. But sometimes it can still be hard to do a full uninterrupted treatment. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Anyway, this thread inspires me to ask... what are some of the other challenges people are facing specific to parenting while trying to manage cf?

Hi TIN, thanks for your response. For me having enough energy can be an issue and also fitting in time to jog on my treadmill.

For me, having enough energy is a HUGE problem. My daughter is 3 months old and I am having a realllllly hard time handling her, the house work, and ME (nebs, etc) while Kenny is at work. My sinuses are now acting up and I know I will be needing sinus surgery soon, so it's having no energy & feeling sick while having to raise a baby. Before having a baby, I would just lay down and sleep when I didn't feel good & now obviously I can't.

It helps having outside help though.. and when I don't feel good, seeing one smile from my baby just makes my day <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
