I can smell it when they talk, and I don't have to be close. I smells like metal. BLECH!!! </p> <p>That's usually I differentiate between cold and allergies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-just-tell-when-your-lo-is-getting-sick#post-127003 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 17:12:38 +0000 BoogieBea 127003@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We can always tell by his mood. Both our LOs are sick currently. I feel like we can't get a healthy stretch these days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-just-tell-when-your-lo-is-getting-sick#post-126986 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 17:05:14 +0000 banana 126986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Poor Charlie!! I feel so bad when kids get sick. :( </p> <p>The first sign of sickness is usually a runny nose so I can tell he's going to get sick once I see runny boogies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-just-tell-when-your-lo-is-getting-sick#post-126965 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 16:56:01 +0000 Honeybee 126965@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I totally know; DD just doesn't seem like herself, and I can always tell she's getting sick when her eyes start to look tired.</p> <p>Hopefully Charlie feels better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-just-tell-when-your-lo-is-getting-sick#post-125985 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 08:57:09 +0000 eeh 125985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm pregnant with my first so I can't attest to her specifically but when one of my students is getting sick I can typically tell because I spend so much time with them every day. I had a little boy last week that I had to wake up 6 times during a math lesson even after getting a drink, going to the bathroom, etc. so I could tell he was getting sick. Sure enough, he was home the next day with strep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-just-tell-when-your-lo-is-getting-sick#post-125853 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 07:47:53 +0000 chopsuey 125853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh no! :( LO has only gotten sick twice. Both very mild with only congestion. I hate it though.<br /> Hope Charlie gets better soon! :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-just-tell-when-your-lo-is-getting-sick#post-125843 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 07:45:25 +0000 mrs. wagon 125843@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>poor Charlie :( I guess that explains the meltdowns over the weekend!! That's how we can usually tell when Wagon Jr. is getting sick... he starts to be really really cranky. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-just-tell-when-your-lo-is-getting-sick#post-125833 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 07:42:29 +0000 heffalump 125833@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aww poor Charlie!</p> <p>So far LO really hasn't gotten that sick. She had a cold once, but we had no clue it was coming. She sneezes a lot anyway. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-just-tell-when-your-lo-is-getting-sick#post-125774 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 06:49:40 +0000 Andrea 125774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Poor Charlie, feel better soon! </p> <p>The LO gets runny noses once in a while. So I can tell only when the snot starts to come out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-just-tell-when-your-lo-is-getting-sick#post-125773 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 06:44:59 +0000 mrbee 125773@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We heard that Charlie threw up during nap time yesterday and then noticed that he didn't eat much dinner last night. We feared he was going to wake up sick... </p> <p>Sure enough, he threw up again just after going to bed, coughed all night and then woke up with a 100 degree fever! :-(</p> <p>Do you have a second sense for when your LO is getting sick? </p>
