Top 10 things to know about children and vomit

1. A child will appear completely healthy when they are asking if they can crawl into bed with you for a snuggle. All will be well until you fall asleep.

2. Vomit is attracted to emetophobes.

3. Vomit wakes you up quickly when it hits you at full force in the middle of the darkness.

4. Children only vomit on a day when the emetophobic parent is home alone with said children.

5. The sibling will soon follow...but only when you least expect it. No matter how many buckets you spread across the house.

6. You will be sick...but only from worrying about whether or not you will catch the bug.

7. 42" tall child will get the couch.

8. Sick child won't want to be alone...5'6" parent gets the loveseat.

9. Child will appear to have puked all they can puke...until you finally allow yourself to fall asleep.

10. Child will only request all the food and drinks that are worst for a sick tummy. You'll spend your day breaking hearts for keeping food from a child who looks like Starvin' Marvin.
