The weather triggered a lot of sickness. It is very cold in the morning and quite hot weather in the afternoon. Even my four months sons becomes a victim of it. He keeps on crying especially at night. It is really hard when your child is sick. If only I can take the sickness and transfer it to myself. Yesterday, Monday I've never went to work to nurse him. Today, I've packed my things with a heavy heart to continue my working schedule. I hope my boy will get well soon.
Hows the weather in your area?

I find when babies and animals get sick they really do not know how to say what is going on with them but show you. I hate when I get a cough then I think of bronchiitis that I have gotten a lot and I feel it will never end but now I have an air purifier and that really does help me sleep.

I also observe this as many of my office mates had fallen to it as well. My wife also reported a lot of her students were also absent because of it. I think I am just lucky I have not catch it yet. I think my daily dosage of Vit C is preventing me to catch the virus.
Although I love the climate right now cool and not very hot. But the effect of it is many are getting sick.

@simplfred I guess everybody would not want to become victim of it. No matter how easy it is to treat a common colds or flu you do not want to be in that situation since they would really put you down for a couple of days if not for a week if it becomes a full blown flu.
The climate is really cool right now that I really appreciate since I do not feel sweaty all the time.

That's great to know that you are not yet a victim of it. Same here as well, I hope, I won't because my family needs my income.

Yes this is cause by extreme changing of weather. Too hot during the daytime and very cold during nighttime.

Very true, my friend. The weather is kinda cool but the sickness it carries is simply not cool at all.

I agree with you, I just had a virus last week due to the weather and thank God, it was over.
Yesterday was sunny but the wind is cold.
And today, it starts to gloom and we think it will rain later this afternoon or tonight.
Get well soon to your baby.

Most of the children got sick here not only them even the old ones. I hope my wife and I won't, especially my wife because she needs to take of our children during weekdays.

I think there is but we are very careful on giving him one. If his symptoms stay until today I will ask my wife to take him to the doctor.

I will put in a prayer for him and hope he feels much better soon. We have no snow in Florida but our temps have gone down and it is rather cool here.

Oh, thank you so much for the prayer. We are not used to cold weather because cold weather shows itself only during the month of January.

Indeed, for me January is the coolest. Yeah, better take medication while it is on its early stage.
