Ok, i know it is normal for kids to get sick - especially the first year at school or nursery they pick up every bug going around. But I don't think we've had more than a week since before christmas where both my children (DS 22 mths, DD 4 yrs) have been healthy. And it's never "just" a cold - there's always a fever or conjunctivitis or an ear infection, or in one case a tummy bug (that was fun).
Has anyone else been going through this? Aside from worrying about my kid's physical health I'm beginning to fear for my own mental health - even when they're well now I spend half my time feeling their forheads to see if they're warm, I'm afraid to make dinner plans or playdates because there's a 50/50 chance we'll have to cancel. Not to mention the fact that of course they don't sleep well when they're sick.
We've been to the doctor a few times - sometimes we get a diagnosis, sometimes not. But nobody seems to think there's anything wierd about how often they've been sick. Is this normal?
