Hey ladies,
It's 12.45am I am up with my 2 year old, he's been sick in his bed so after a quick bath and change of bedding he's now wide awake and needs to get tired again.
My question is.... Are toddlers supposed to be constantly ill I'm mean SERIOUSLY it's all the time. Tummy bugs, colds, ear infection. We are really having a rotten run of it.
I'm 38 weeks with dc2,I've recently put my DS into nursery 4 mornings a week so he'l have abit of stimulation and fun while I'm getting to grips with a newborn again. Considering taking him out as since he's started 3 months ago he's not had a 2 weeks span of being full of health also will my newborn also be ill all the time.
Thoughts????

Think it's pretty normal for them to get sick when they start in new child care. It should pass soon but whether you keep him there or take him out is entirely upto you.

Hope he is feeling better now and you get a better nights sleep.

DD was in nursery for 6 months last year and she was constantly sick. I took her out and there wasnt a single sniffle until last month when she started school.

Its pretty normal.
