DH &amp; I got it too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-hfm-this-year#post-1905193 Fri, 17 Oct 2014 12:21:08 +0000 petunia354 1905193@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, about a month ago. My mom watches him everyday so I have NO clue where he got it. Maybe from his older cousin who was a carrier from preschool? Then I caught it from DS and was arguably more miserable than he was. A month later my hands and feet are STILL peeling! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-hfm-this-year#post-1904998 Fri, 17 Oct 2014 10:20:47 +0000 Freckles 1904998@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, thank goodness. </p> <p>I know a lot of people who got it at a birthday party, so i don't think it matters (unfortunately) if your kid goes to daycare or not. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-hfm-this-year#post-1904992 Fri, 17 Oct 2014 10:19:09 +0000 BKCaribBaby 1904992@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes...She isn't in a group care setting, so I think she must have gotten it from touching things at the park. She didn't have a very bad case though. She was fine after a day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-hfm-this-year#post-1904989 Fri, 17 Oct 2014 10:17:15 +0000 Boheme 1904989@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We went to the ped today, because even though I already knew it was HFM I was worried about all the blisters he has scratched at. Sure enough, he has secondary infections everywhere he has managed to scratch. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-hfm-this-year#post-1904774 Fri, 17 Oct 2014 08:32:31 +0000 yoursilverlining 1904774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe? She had the classic triple-spot pattern, and a couple turned into what looked like scabbed over dry skin type blisters, but she wasn't uncomfortable or bothered so I didn't take her to the doc to confirm since they can't do anything for it. If she had it, it was super, super mild (thankfully!). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-hfm-this-year#post-1904764 Fri, 17 Oct 2014 08:29:55 +0000 Foodnerd81 1904764@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not yet! She's not in daycare or preschool, but we have a few friends who are not either and who have gotten HFM. With library and children's museum, I know we are just lucky so far. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-hfm-this-year#post-1904731 Fri, 17 Oct 2014 08:06:53 +0000 cmomma17 1904731@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-hfm-this-year#post-1904724 Fri, 17 Oct 2014 08:01:13 +0000 hellobeeboston 1904724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No (knock on wood) I'm not sure how we have avoided it. Had two play dates this summer and got calls the next day that they found out the kids had hfm. Then a kid in his class at daycare had it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-hfm-this-year#post-1904657 Fri, 17 Oct 2014 06:48:02 +0000 Adira 1904657@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not this year, but both Xander and I had it last year! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-hfm-this-year#post-1904643 Fri, 17 Oct 2014 06:13:11 +0000 looch 1904643@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The doctor's office said my son did, but I didn't notice one blister on his hands, feet or in his mouth. He did have a fever but I really don't think it was HFM. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-hfm-this-year#post-1904537 Thu, 16 Oct 2014 22:42:52 +0000 Espion 1904537@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup. Literally the last week he was at his last daycare. Parting gift. Ugh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-hfm-this-year#post-1904517 Thu, 16 Oct 2014 22:20:20 +0000 autumnlove 1904517@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO 2 had it in July </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-hfm-this-year#post-1904509 Thu, 16 Oct 2014 22:15:32 +0000 Boheme 1904509@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: I have no idea where my LO got it either! His daycare only has 4 babies, none of them with HFM, and he only goes a couple of days a week! I'm guessing church nursery :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-hfm-this-year#post-1904465 Thu, 16 Oct 2014 21:42:20 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1904465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yeah in the summer! No idea where he got it either (he didn't start daycare until school started) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-hfm-this-year#post-1904463 Thu, 16 Oct 2014 21:41:54 +0000 yellowbird 1904463@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-hfm-this-year#post-1904461 Thu, 16 Oct 2014 21:41:30 +0000 coopsmama 1904461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! He did have roseola though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-hfm-this-year#post-1904434 Thu, 16 Oct 2014 21:21:47 +0000 hilsy85 1904434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes in July. He's not in daycare or preschool either so I thought we'd be safe! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-hfm-this-year#post-1904432 Thu, 16 Oct 2014 21:20:41 +0000 Bao 1904432@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No they have never had it, thankfully. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-hfm-this-year#post-1904431 Thu, 16 Oct 2014 21:19:13 +0000 mrsjazz 1904431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope.

I spent pretty much all of Mother's Day weekend on the couch watching television with a sick baby cuddling on my chest. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-hfm-this-year#post-1904426 Thu, 16 Oct 2014 21:15:11 +0000 Ra 1904426@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. Knock on wood! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-hfm-this-year#post-1904425 Thu, 16 Oct 2014 21:14:01 +0000 MrsMccarthy 1904425@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No but he isn't in daycare or preschool. Our close friend and their baby who I used to babysit all have it right now though so it's clearly just been luck for us so far. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-hfm-this-year#post-1904423 Thu, 16 Oct 2014 21:11:55 +0000 Boheme 1904423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like everyone did! My LO is literally covered head to toe in it right now. </p>
