Learn more about your child’s immune system
Our children are our world and the thought of having a sick child is enough keep any parent up all night. A developing immune system is extremely fragile and can leave your children open to attack from any and every virus and bacteria. So how do we protect our children when it comes to making their immunity stronger?
A brief overview of child immunity
In the first few months of your children’s life, they are still protected by antibodies passed on to them from their mother. After about 6 months of age, these antibodies disappear and the children’s immune system has to develop them on its own to deal with the antigens after being subjected to them. This is when they are most susceptible to infections.
As children get older and come out of the safety of their houses, they are surrounded by various new sources of infections that they weren’t previously subjected to. Starting day care or nursery is a major milestone in your children’s life for various reasons and one of them is immunity. Children come in contact with other children and the chances of passing infections increase tremendously.
Some children seem to always have the sniffles. They suffer from cold continuously and parents often wonder, “Why ismy child always sick?” “Is it because of a weak immune system?” Read more.
How often is too often?
Babies, toddlers and pre-schoolers on an average get about 7-8 colds a year. At school going ages, they get about 5-6 colds a year. And in the case of teenagers, they get about 3-4 colds a year which is what an adult also experiences. In addition to the cold, children get diarrhoea (with or without vomiting), 2-3 times a year. Some also develop fever along with the cold.
If the frequency of your child’s recurrent infections is higher than what is considered normal, then that’s when you should be worried and seek treatment.
