Hi ladies
It's been a while since I've posted apart from the odd one here or there. We went on holiday and also have been so busy at work since I got back.
I wanted to turn to all you experienced mums for some more advice.
I am so worried that there is something wrong with my little girl. She seems to be constanty ill. It's one thing after another. She is now 11 months. It started from about 5 months old. Which I guess ties in with her not being breastfed anymore as I was going back to work.
So from then she seems to have had one thing after another, quite a few colds, tonsilitus, a nasty tummy bug a couple of weeks ago and now a cold again. The tummy bug and latest cold are a result of her starting nursery a couple of weeks ago for one day a week and I know they pick everything up. I just worry that something is wrong with her.
People tell me that she is just building up her immune system etc and that it's normal. She is a robust and strong little girl. She has an excellent diet, lots of fresh veg and fruit and fish, chicken, pasta, rice, etc, etc.
My mum etc keep wondering why she keeps getting things and that makes me worry that there's something wrong. Maybe they have forgotten what it was like and all the little illnesses or maybe there weren't so many?
Has anyone else experienced this ? I guess you forget the couple of weeks inbetween that they don't have anything.
