I hope they feel better soon! At some point with a recurring fever and a huge Disney trip looming, I would have them examined by a Dr.

I don’t know if you ever tried it or even want to but honestly I DO swear by either Airborne or Emergen-C. I used to be a school bus driver and I was sick all the rotten time thanks to being around kids all the time and being stressed out.

When I went back to college in 2006 I finally decided to give those products a try. While I’m not around young kids per se anymore I am still around a lot of germy college kids AND I’m still under a LOT of stress… yet I’ve only had about 2 colds in the last 3 years. Honestly. I just take the stuff as soon as I feel something possibly coming on and then I take it for however long I feel I should and I usually don’t catch anything.

I know they have formulations for kids.

I think the key to kicking this bug is time, unfortunately. My toddler a few weeks ago (probably like five or six weeks at this point…) came down with a fever that she had on and off for about a week. I came down with it too. After the fever wore off, for good, with her, she had the congestion, cough, snotty nose, etc. I don’t know if we had any weird flu around here, but I do know that it seemed to hang on and come back as soon as we thought she was over it!

Yucky!! And I was going to stop down today to give you your littlest one’s socks. I’m kinda glad I didn’t; although I would have liked to catch up with you. I’m sending many positive and HEALTHY vibes your way. I hope this all clears up before Disney!

I’m in the same boat as you. My 3yo has been home sick since Monday when she woke up with a fever which turned out to be a chest cold and massive double ear infection. She had no fever all day yesterday and BEGGED to go to school today, so she went. She came home a little whiny and tired and was fast asleep by 530pm. I worry that the fever is coming back and I am worried about swine flu. I’d much rather be worried about going to Disney World in 10 days. Hope your house gets better fast.

Hope the kids get better soon and that the rest of you don’t get it! It doesn’t sound like down time is in the schedule for you!! Take care.

It’s funny – I always get cabin fever when I HAVE to stay home, but I’m always amazed at how much work gets accomplished. Go figure.

I really hope your kidlets feel better soon!
