Thank you for sharing your experience Andrea! When my daughter was a newborn, I didn’t want ANY school-aged children near her and tried to avoid them as much as possible. I think it is very selfish of the other parents to bring along their sniffling kid, even if it is JUST A COLD.

Let her see the new baby.” He was hospitalized and he almost died. It was horrifying. He is now almost 8 and has asthma, which the Dr says is most likely from RSV as an infant. I hope people read this and take it seriously. A cold to us can be deadly to a baby. Wash your hands and do not touch a baby without asking first.
