Hats off to parents with young kids and IBS

I've been in flare up all week and without thinking it through I agreed to take my 16 month old grandson over night. Now he's a pretty easy baby but my hubby's away so it's just him and I till his parents come to fetch him.

Honestly, anyone parenting a young child while living with IBS, I salute you! This is tough!

Yes, it is tough. My son had/has ADHD (he's 29 now) but it was very hard. Only had the one, wouldn't have been able to cope with any more!
