But after having 2 kids I use most of my vacation days towards kids sickness that I can't afford to keep them home if it's just s snotty nose... I wish I could.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-is-sick-do-you-still-take-himher-to-daycareetc#post-391326 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 10:42:51 +0000 autumnlove 391326@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only keep her out if she is coughing a lot and has a high fever! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-is-sick-do-you-still-take-himher-to-daycareetc#post-391319 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 10:34:34 +0000 erwoo 391319@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For me it would be preschool. I usually wait until his boogers has cleared up and less or not green anymore. I find that if it's still green then there's still some sort of infection; but if he's been on antibiotics for a couple of days (he had bronchitis recently) then I send him, even if he's still coughing b/c I know he's not contagious anymore. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-is-sick-do-you-still-take-himher-to-daycareetc#post-391249 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 08:48:10 +0000 SAHM0811 391249@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually, as long as she doesn't have a fever or hasn't had one in 24 hours, then she goes to preschool. The other week though, she was fever-free but coughing a LOT, so she stayed home for 2 days. Didn't want her spreading germs and I knew if I sent her she wouldn't rest and would run all over the playground instead. So it just depends. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-is-sick-do-you-still-take-himher-to-daycareetc#post-391246 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 08:41:10 +0000 Andrea 391246@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If she just has a stuffed up nose, then yes. Lots of kids are stuffy all winter long around here. If DD is in a good mood, eating, and sleeping well, then she does to daycare. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-is-sick-do-you-still-take-himher-to-daycareetc#post-391233 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 08:30:39 +0000 chopsuey 391233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lo is still boogery and under the weather so we're going to do church online today (our church streams the service live). </p> <p>I dont know if she's still contagious, but don't want to expose her to other kids. :T</p> <p>Have a feeling there was a sick kid in her nursery class last week. -.- those parents could have saved me from having a miserable week and from getting sick too! </p>
