I have twin toddlers and I hate taking them to the church nursery because 9 out of 10 times, they come down with a cold or some other "bug" a few days later (even though the nursery has a "no sick kids allowed" policy). As a result, we avoid taking them when possible. I regularly, however, have other parents tell me that it's better to allow them to get sick over and over now, so by the time they are school-aged, they won't have so many colds or other illnesses.
Personally, I don't buy it. Aren't there hundreds of strains of colds/flu/etc? Seems to me, they're going to continue to catch whatever is out there, now AND later, because colds don't share the same germs and thoughtless parents continue to bring their sick children to public places. What's the real science here?

My cat has worms, they look like little pieces of rice, we have had her treated twice but the worms are still there, can she give these to my baby? The baby is constantly digging at his little butt and I read that worms will make you very ithchy there, he is going to doctor today, so should I make this connection?

My symptoms are:

- Teary and warm eyes
- Stuffy nose
- Itchy throat
- Dizziness and headache
- Weakness

And when I look at certain foods, it makes me want to throw up. I was out in the cold just two days ago and was surrounded by a lot of people.

Also, is there anything I can do to make it more bearable?

Back in may 2006 i drank water that was perhaps contaminated, near a farm.

Since january 2007 i experience presure in the lower abdomen. At first I felt it only on the left side but then it spread to the right side. I've asked a doctor and he told me it was perhaps an accumulation of hard to digest things that i ate.

But that should be gone long ago because i drink alot of orange juice and have no regularity problems. I know the spawn time of many parasites that live in used water is like 6 months so i'm worried.

im a freshman living in dorms, but i also have the vaccine. last night i got a very very sore throat and a pretty bad runny nose. my head also feels all stuffy, especially my left ear. i woke up this morning and i felt a little better (i usually do when im sick feel better in the morning) but i have a small headache. i dont have stiff neck, sensitivity to light, vomiting etc. i described all my symptoms, im just worried that my symptoms came so quick, and im a little paranoid, this is the first time ive been this sick at college. when should i head to the doctor? we only have emergency room on weekends, and being a pre med student i can understand doctors getting pissed when u go to the er with a cold
