[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For those saying your dc will get sick more, it's okay to get sick. It is probably healthy to be exposed to more earlier (for a dc who follows the recommended vaccine schedule, obviously). This is clearly not scientific but the dc I stayed home with has food allergies (COVID baby) and the dc who went to daycare does not. That's a one off but studies do show that early germ exposure does have fewer instances of food allergies... something to consider at least! [/quote] Immune systems are not fully formed until 3. There is no benefit to getting sick earlier. My nanny kids never had RSV, HFM and really nothing else beyond a cold. They went at 3 and were sick that whole first winter on and off. But nothing serious or hospital worthy. And it's a lot easier to treat and manage a sick 3 year old than a sick 6 month- 24 month old. In ES now and are just fine too and have no food allergies.
