if your child had a throat and ear infection and was on AB's and it was 1 day before they were due to finish the course and they felt ok in themselves would you take them to soft play to meet some friends?

Yes - you can always leave early if he/she gets too tired.

I would if they felt up to it. Tbh, my dds have gone to school with antibiotics if they've felt well enough.

Yes, I agree with chip - take them and see how it goes
Other parents aren't this thoughtful and take their children anywhere with all sorts of bugs
Go and enjoy

i was worried people might be annoyed cos i imagine illnesses travel fast in places like soft play centres.

I don't know

are these things contagious? If so I would not take them

otherwise I would

If I didn't know if they were infectious or not I would ring NHS direct

My friend lets her son go to nursery with all sorts of illnesses and doesn't give it a thought. you are being too thoughtful - your child is at the end of their infection. Please go anf try not to worry.
The activity will do him/her good
(and you!)

no, it isnt fair on the other children. If you are sure hey aren't infectious tho, no problem
hope your lo feels better soon

nappyaddict · 10/06/2007 22:09

oooh i don't know if it is infectious i just assumed chest, ear, throat infections were infectious. is this not the case?

Really think you're giving it too much thought and consideration - it's one day before the antibiotics are due to finish - many people don't even finish courses of antibiotics because they feel better
go!!!

I don't know nappyaddict, sorry
