I've just joined a gym and are now panicking about putting DS is creche

He's 6 months old. Am I being hysterical or an idiot for thinking this would be a good time

You are being a bit hysterical. Young babies are less likely to get it and I assume you are showering after the gym to get rid of any infection within the gym.

Just take sensible precautions.

Being fit reduces your risk of getting flu and other diseases because our immune system is improved in any case.

thanks choc

think i might be looking for excuses not to go to the gym
