Symptoms in very young kids?

[munchmom]

If your young (under 5) children had either delta or omicron, what were their symptoms? Did LFTs show up positive or only PCR?

Delta. Upset tummy only. Negative LFT & positive PCR

Post covid: extreme fatigue

She is 4, she was tired and looked pale, said her head and throat hurt a bit but was generally her happy self most of the time still. We wouldnt have thought to test her probably if the other 5 of us weren't covid positive and looking for it! None of her lateral flow tests ever showed positive, only the second PCR swab that we did came back positive. That's the one that was a home test so I could do a throat swab as well as nose without the people at the test centre insisting on 'nose only' for children

Thanks a lot for your comments. I’m more and more worried about my 4 year old who has fatigue, a temperature, bit of upset belly perhaps and seems a little bit confused sometimes, complained of a headache too…

DS didn't have a single symptom the entire time. It was quite tricky keeping him isolated when he was bouncing off the walls!

His quick test was negative, but not sure how accurate that type is, thinking of going for pcr because of the temperature

Keep an eye it's not mis-c /pims.
In case he had covid 4-6w ago.
That is mainly persistent high temp and stomache etc

Thanks, that’s nasty stuff… hopefully it’s not that as he didn’t have any symptoms earlier and no known exposure but keeping an eye on it
