[quote=Anonymous]You probably don’t want to hear this because it’ll make you anxious but do a deeper search into his health.

Now - anecdotally, what you describe was both my kids in daycare. Literally every other week - cold, flu, strep, stomach bug, another cold, hand foot mouth, conjuctivits, another stomach bug, cold plus strep, fever. It just went on and on and every other week we knew to plan to be home and sure enough a sickness cropped up. We took a break during Covid for two years and then back in daycare and preschool. Kindergarten, the same. And then first grade started and we only had on fever and one stomach bug. And in second grade, just a sniffly nose. I don’t want to say daycare helps because it’s pure misery with little ones who can’t articulate how they feel and can’t sleep stuffy, but what you describe is 100% the years of daycare and preschool for us where we also didn’t do anything. It may be different because your kiddo is older or may have a condition but when that other poster says daycare this is what they mean. Without fail, every two weeks my kids were sick from ages 1 to 5. It got slightly better as they were older but it never stopped until first grade out of the blue we just realized whoa we haven’t gotten sick a whole month!! Haha

Goodluck sending best wishes!     [/quote]
