I am blessed to have all the kids vacc'ed for the flu and the H1N1. The baby 6 mo's got hers today and I felt so bad adding 2 extra shots but in the long run its so much better then getting sick.

It's so hard to know when to put on the brakes to call it a sick day. Some days my kids are sick and I send them off to school thinking it's not so bad and then regret it later. Other days I take the plunge and keep them home only to have the pediatrician look at me like I am crazy because they are bouncing off the walls at his office not acting sick in the least. "I swear they were dying this morning..." It's such a balancing act that it is really hard to know for sure. Don't be too hard on yourself! Some days I go to pick them up thinking they have been just miserable all day and when I get there, they are totally fine. Oh, the parenting guilt!
