I'm 99% sure it's a stomach bug. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-your-lo-has-been-sick-for#post-2694673 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 14:03:07 +0000 Truth Bombs 2694673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: I remember you mentioning recently that your daughter was having some serious ongoing issues with constipation. Are you sure this is a virus and not part of her ongoing GI issues? I would take her to a pediatric GI for advise at this point. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-your-lo-has-been-sick-for#post-2694505 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 12:04:13 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2694505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>3 days with a fever followed by a trip to the Children's hospital because of a leukemia scare. He was just not himself.</p> <p>LO also had a cold that straddled days when daycare was closed for the holidays. His persistent congestion and cough really sucked. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-your-lo-has-been-sick-for#post-2694500 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 11:59:08 +0000 littlejoy 2694500@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2+ weeks for HFMD (1 week of super high-fever + 1 week of open sores). It is THE WORST of the common kid viruses - I could tell she was in so much pain for such a long time. </p> <p>Other than that, LO has had a fever for 5 days, which ended up being a double ear infection. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-your-lo-has-been-sick-for#post-2694487 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 11:38:07 +0000 MarieJ 2694487@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: a full week!

Wow, you guys went through a lot as well! I can't believe all that happened at once :O It is so scary when these viruses just take over. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-your-lo-has-been-sick-for#post-2694459 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 11:07:48 +0000 youboots 2694459@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@muffinsmuffins: I'm so sorry.

She got bronchitis too helping. Luckily a family friend with 3 kids sent over her 15 year old to help that week- she's still our regular babysitter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-your-lo-has-been-sick-for#post-2694453 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 11:03:41 +0000 Bao 2694453@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@youboots: ahhhh!

It was about 3 weeks total. I had bronchitis for a chunk of it and one week DH had a trip to NY he absolutely could not miss. A parenting low for sure. She went to the dr about 6 times and the ER once. On the way home from the dr and to the pharmacy I got a flat tire during this ordeal.</p> <p>Now you know why I'm shooting for a 4 year age gap. I still want to cry when I think of it. Last July was the worst. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-your-lo-has-been-sick-for#post-2694434 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 10:46:06 +0000 KT326 2694434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A whole week with a high fever.

When he gets ear infections he tends to have no symptoms other than a fever that spikes to 104 in the afternoon, and it always takes us a few days to catch on and realize he needs antibiotics. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-your-lo-has-been-sick-for#post-2694362 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 09:49:17 +0000 ValentineMommy 2694362@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe 2-3 days out of school.

I think this is the longest she's ever been sick outside of colds. She's been couch bound since Tuesday morning and isn't any better :/ </p>
