I think it's safe to say we dodged a bullet!

I've been hesitant to post anything about this the past few days in fear of jinxing myself, but I think it is finally safe to say it.

Last Friday, K was the only one at daycare (his class is only 5 babies on the days he goes) all day because everyone was out with Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease. Apparently a little girl that only goes to daycare on the days K doesn't go originally came down with it and after that all the kids got it EXCEPT Kellen. I was paranoid all weekend that it would show up, but from what I have read about it, it only takes 24 hours after exposure to the disease to start showing symptoms, so I think we are in the clear. Today, 2 of the kids were back at daycare having gotten over the virus, but 3 kids are still out. They disinfected the entire room and bleached all the toys, so I am thinking and praying we are in the clear now.

Maybe my anti-germaphobia has actually been a blessing in disguise. Building immunities!

    I hope you did dodge that bullet, because we had it in our house and it was horrible.  4/5 of the kids at our daycare all had it at the same time... literally out all the same days.  Then the 5th got it a few weeks later.  I hope K isn't like the little girl at our daycare who got it later....

    Don't scare me like this!! Now I'm all paranoid again. She really got it a few weeks later? Everyone keeps telling me he would have it by now if he was going to get it... Oh man, I hope he doesn't get it.

  • I am glad K dodged hand foot and mouth. It is horrible for the kids and for the parents.
  • Glad to hear K is in the clear!  That is one nasty virus for a little one to have to endure.

  • I'm guessing that girl probably got it elsewhere because I've seen the same timetable, @lewispm.  I'm sure he's in the clear and will remain happy, smiley baby!
