My kids usually spend all winter indoors with some kind of cold or the other. We’ve been doing a little bit better this year but I think it’s because we’ve been skipping MOMS Club. We’ve been stuck in the house. I’ve been wondering how everyone else has been fairing this year? Looks like Seattle is doing ok. How do I know? I checked out the Cold and Flu Symptom Tracker.
The Cold & Flu Symptom Tracker is brought to you by Triaminic®, a leader in children’s over-the-counter cold and flu symptom medication. When dispensing medication to children, remember to always read and follow medicine labels exactly, to ensure that the child receives the right dosage. Single-use products like Triaminic Thin Strips® provides a pre-measured dose of medicine that dissolves quickly on the tongue, so parents know their children are receiving the recommended amount for their age.
Also, the Sick Day Guidelines that Triaminic® partnered with the National Association of School Nurses (NASN) to create. Parents know when their kids aren’t feeling 100% – these Guidelines are aimed at helping parents decide when to keep them at home, or send them off to school.
I always went to school sick. I never missed a day of school until my dad married my stepmom, who believed in keeping sick kids home from school. She was right, it’s wrong to send your kid to school sick, you don’t want to infect other children and they will get better faster resting at home, so it’s nice to be able to find a place where we have an indicator of whether or not we should keep our kids home. Even with that though, I think moms know their kids, trust your judgment mom. You know what they need.

Handwashing is the key. Also hand sanitizer in the purse for when after touching door, elevator buttons or before eating when out.
I learned that in Lexington Ky the flu level is high, but in Louisville it is low. Strange two big cities so differently effected. I am between the two
