She started daycare at 12 months and was sick on and off with a cough/cold for 6 months but by the time she was 18 months, she was good! She's now 22 months and hasn't been sick in a long time *knock on wood*. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-colds-or-other-illnesses-has-your-lo-had-since-starting-daycare#post-836869 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 17:22:48 +0000 dagret 836869@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He's only had runny noses so far (knock on wood!) he's been in daycare for 6 weeks and is 4.5 mo old. He got his first really bad cold from my husband while I was on maternity leave. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-colds-or-other-illnesses-has-your-lo-had-since-starting-daycare#post-836868 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 17:22:30 +0000 KT326 836868@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS has been in daycare for 10 months. He has had so many colds I've lost count. He pretty much had a runny nose all winter. Just remember, they are building their immune systems now and won't get as many colds once they start school! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-colds-or-other-illnesses-has-your-lo-had-since-starting-daycare#post-836855 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 17:13:17 +0000 autumnlove 836855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I lost track the first year....it was a lot! She has only been sick twice this year! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-colds-or-other-illnesses-has-your-lo-had-since-starting-daycare#post-836852 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 17:11:32 +0000 BeachMama 836852@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD started daycare at 5 months, in October. I swear it seemed like she had one constant cold from November till about February. She's had 2 ear infections, and pink eye twice. But she's been pretty good since spring started! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-colds-or-other-illnesses-has-your-lo-had-since-starting-daycare#post-836778 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 16:40:58 +0000 Freckles 836778@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO started daycare at 11 months. She has been in daycare for almost 3 months now and has only had a serious cold (with low-grade fever) once. She's had two cases of the runny nose, but nothing that needed tylenol.</p> <p>When i was at home with her, she only got sick once. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-colds-or-other-illnesses-has-your-lo-had-since-starting-daycare#post-836774 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 16:38:12 +0000 MarieJ 836774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're on lo's third cold. Ugh. I love her daycare but hate how often she gets sick!</p> <p>I stayed home with her today because she was so stuffy &amp; neither of us rested well last night.</p> <p>What about your LO? </p>
