Influenza a & B... plus Strep!

When will the antibiotics kick in... and he not being 'contagious?"
Ask your Pediatrician.
Even after that, watch out for any relapses....
Sanitize the home.
Hopefully you and your Husband don't have it either or are not carrying the virus?
Did the Doctor test you both too, or just your 14 month old?

Someone will have to keep him company since he is lonely... and sad.
That is hard...
movies, games, crafts, sleeping since he is sick too... tv... does he have a computer he can use???? he can do online learning sites like PBS kids etc.

give him an early present of a nintendo ds if it is at all possible within your budget. we have always quarantined our kids when they're ill(we have 3). we have a portable tv/dvd player that stays locked in a closet unless someone is sick. they almost get excited to be sick(maybe once a year, thank God) b/c they know they will never really have a tv in their room. but my 4yo and 7yo boys LOVE their ds lites, and it entertains them for hours. try not to feel too bad and be sure he knows that he's not being punished, and you remember that you are doing this in the best interest of your family, so try not to feel bad. it's only for a few days. good luck and i hope he's better very soon and no one else gets it.

poor kid! Are there any movies out he wants to see that you could redbox for him? It's only a dollar a day, so pretty affordable.
