DH and I still say that HFM was worse than the week he spent in the hospital with RSV.

First time the symptoms were worse. Second time was milder but she was older and a lot more vocal about her sores so it felt worse. I've had it three times. Once as a teenager and was the worst with sores all down my throat. Second time just a fever after dd caught it. This last time it ran rampant in our house w fevers and sores luckily only in the front of our mouth bleh littlebug on "Has your LO had HFMD more than once?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-had-hfmd-more-than-once#post-2349005 Mon, 09 Nov 2015 11:36:30 +0000 littlebug 2349005@https://boards.hellobee.com/ HFM first time was AWFUL. 2nd time the doctor was even hesitant to diagnose it because it was so mild. twodoghouse on "Has your LO had HFMD more than once?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-had-hfmd-more-than-once#post-2348996 Mon, 09 Nov 2015 11:28:25 +0000 twodoghouse 2348996@https://boards.hellobee.com/ My twins had it in July and just had it again a couple weeks ago.

Mine just finished getting over her 2nd go at it - her first was a year and a half ago when she was just past 1. It sucks but we were told that it's very possible to get it multiple times. Hang in there, hope you all feel better soon!

The dr. said that there are multiple strains of the virus out there so they can get it more than once. Have you experienced this? I am wondering how often my LO may get this.
