Yet another wonderful cold

Just last week LO got over a cold (or maybe two) he had over over two weeks. A couple days after I started to feel a bit of sore throat, that was Saturday and I prayed and prayed DS wouldn't get sick. Well what do you know, this morning while nursing i heard the oh so familiar sound of nasal congestion, sure enough I used the Frida and LOTS came out! Ugh!

I thought EBFed babies had better immune system? This is a crazy thought but, maybe I don't have a great immune system therefore not passing to him enough antibodies or something like that?

Re: Yet another wonderful cold

  • Awww, poor little man (and poor you)! 

     I don't know if your theory about your immune system is scientifically sound, but I it sure makes sense.  Who knows!  

    Hope everyone gets healthy and stays healthy soon!

  • Does your LO go to day care? I know when my step-daughter started daycare she had a cough and runny nose for 6+ months. Plus EBFed babies also get your colds from you, but good news is he is also getting your antibodies for fighting your current cold which will help LO kick it faster.
