    Has anyone here's young children had Swine Flu?

    What was it like for them?

    Mild or very worryingly hard time for them?

    A colleague's (on another floor thankfully) children have it now, as had he.
    They caught it off him. He's Ok now.
    He reckons it's no worse than any other flu - just a bit more intense and long lasting.
    Hard Brexit now!

      Mate's 3 year old son had it last week. He was asking for rocket lollies after a couple of days...

        Friend of mine's 7 year old had it over the weekend. He felt a bit poorly for a while, far less so than the normal flu we went down with over Christmas. He was fine by yesterday.

          I heard it's far worse in children who've been exposed to chutney spoons.

            They have massive mental trauma, they're more vulnerable and have less will to live.

                  My 7 year old twins had it but they weren't badly affected. Only the one day each when they felt sufficiently poorly to confine themselves to the sofa.

                  I actually had a cold immediately after that made me feel worse. The wife felt the worse of all but only for a 24 hour period.

                  The eldest didn't get it at all!

                    My 8 year old had flu and basically slept for around 48 hrs only waking for calpol and loo breaks. she seemed tons better on the 4th day. She seemed to get over it much quicker than me
                    I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this
