Wanna ask .. Is it normal for a baby to go through the vicious cycle of falling sick and recovering from sick when they enter infant care? I'm up at this hour to monitor my 11 months old daughter's fever .. She has been falling sick v often till my childcare leave all used up :( parents who sent your LO to infant care , do u have similar problem as me or am I the only 1 gg through all these ? I'm soooo... Tired :(

Hi it is very normal as babies immunity is not strong yet. Almost all babies go through the stage of keep falling sick when they first start childcare, infant care or school. Eventually their immunity will build up as they get older. This is also the main reason why I refuse to send my baby to infant care as long as I can drag. Once your baby turns 1 year old you may try to feed him sambucol which helps to build their immunity and also lessen the symptoms of flu. If your baby keeps falling sick it may also be good to check on the hygiene level of the infant care she is in. Do they sanitize the place properly? What we all need to do is to stop sending our babies to infant care until they fully recover. Sometimes I do not understand how virus will spread if parents are vigilant and refrain from sending sick kids to school. Even after they recover From fever they may still have runny nose and cough, during this stage bacteria still can spread. Hope your gal recovers soon!
