The well-known blogger finally dispelled all doubts on this topic. See her post in which she explains why children with colds can and should leave the house when they are ill.
The flu season is in full swing. If your child has caught an infection in the nursery or kindergarten again, we have good news for you! It turns out that you don’t have to stay home with him all the time. A well-known blogger argues that under certain circumstances you can go for a walk. See what!
Can you go for a walk with a sick child?
Most moms believe that when their baby catches an infection, they should stay home with them. They do not allow themselves to think that they could go to the playground with their toddler or just walk. According to Mama Gynecologist, we should give up such thinking. In his blog entry, he argues that if our child has a cough and runny nose, he can easily go outside – even in winter!
“In some diseases of the respiratory system, cold air has a soothing effect, constricting the mucous membranes of the respiratory tract, making breathing easier and making the nose clear” – argues Nicole Sochacki.
The problem comes when the baby has a fever. In such a situation, the blogger recommends that the toddler stay at home anyway and rest under the watchful eye of his parents.

Antibiotic and walks
If our child is taking an antibiotic, can we go outside with it? It turns out that yes! The gynecologist’s mother reveals that at the beginning of her medical practice, she advised her parents against such ideas. However, older colleagues explained to her that keeping the baby at home for almost 10 days was not good for him. Of course, the first thing to do is get rid of the fever, if it has appeared. However, 2-3 days after starting antibiotic therapy, when the young patient feels reasonably well, a short walk is recommended.
If we decide to go for a walk with a sick child, should we dress them in some way? None of these things. In her entry, the Gynecologist’s mother points out that we should dress the baby adequately to the weather, remembering not to overheat it.
Are you convinced by her arguments?
Make sure your child is not allergic to antibiotics. Opt for a mail-order antibiotic allergy test.
