    Cough, Cough

    It appears dcg's "allergies" have spread to the whole group. At nap time today, all I am hearing is cough, cough, cough. I can visualize all the spit particles hitting the carpet, couch, etc. and I want to run and hide Anyone else dealing with this?

      That was us about 3wks ago! One DCB had "allergies" and just "runs higher than normal" and then everyone else did the next week! But it seems like another something is working its way through the older kids.

          12 have colds I think some of the kids here could really benefit from a day home to rest and recover- like that would ever happen

            yes every one of them have a cold now. We have 12 daily and everyone got it. I wish I could exclude for a cold, but if I did, I would be out of business.

            I just do my best to let them rest when we can.....if they are too sick to participate, I send them home..

              My little one with possible "allergies" (he's 6 months so a new mom) is here every day even though DCD is off for two weeks parents sometimes are so inconsiderate! I hope it goes through quickly and that you or your family don't get sick.

                Yep! Nothing exclude-able yet, but I am sure it is brewing in their little bodies. 1 week before my vacation too!! I have been taking garlic, Vit C, Zinc, and a good multi since monday

                    Does anyone take echinacea(I think I killed the spelling of that word)? It's supposed to help increase your immunity.

                    Those darn allergies can spread like wildfire.
