Dd (just turned one) has been in nursery for two days a week for the past month. In that time she has had strep throat, an ear infection and now had a hacking cough. I expected her to get unwell due to exposure to all of the new germs but this feels excessive. The strep throat in particular was very nasty and she had to have two courses of antibiotics to clear it up. No sooner is she better from that then she gets a nasty cough. I'm hoping it's not a chest infection.

I'm listening to her coughing in her bed wondering when I need to worry about it. Is the first 6 months of nursery just an endless course of antibiotics? Was your child like this when they first started nursery and how long before it improved? Thank you

In the last 10 months mine has had chicken pox, slapped cheek, scarlet fever, 3 ear infections, hand foot and mouth and a never ending stream of colds one after another. I honestly don't remember the last time she didn't have a snotty nose. It's never ending.
