[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] We don't have any allergies in our house. I just can't imagine living in a filthy house. If you are not dusting at least once a week, gross. Seriously gross. [/quote] Meh. At least my kids won't have allergies and asthma. :) Dirty Baby, Healthy Baby? Early Filth May Reduce Allergies http://www.nbcnews.com/health/kids-health/dirty-baby-healthy-baby-early-filth-may-reduce-allergies-n123921 Newborns Exposed to Dirt, Dander and Germs May Have Lower Allergy and Asthma Risk http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/news/media/releases/newborns_exposed_to_dirt_dander_and_germs_may_have_lower_allergy_and_asthma_risk [/quote] Stop that. Allergies are largely inherited, so allergic parents can live in filth all they want, their kids still have a higher risk than others of being allergic. Don't pat yourself on the back.[/quote] Yes allergies are somewhat genetic, but mostly it's a lifestyle thing. I dust my house often, but make sure my baby is around dogs and cats and gets to play in the dirt. I never worried about the 5 second rule. Dirt isn't going to make her sick, other 2 year olds make her sick. [/quote]
