Is it normal to have a cold at least 50% the time if you have young children?

No – wash your hands more and use this

yep.

Yes, but once their teeth are done you should be OK IME.

from my litle guys 3 months until 2.5 years old i had a cold about every 3rd week.

yes, but then we didn’t use antibacterial gel so perhaps that’s where we went wrong 😉

Yep. 2 kids both in nursery. Our house in ankle deep in snot for 6 months of the year.

Nope. And we didn’t use antibacterial gel either.

Use hand gel at work wash hands at home, take echinacea, try and get lots of sleep, drink water, careful to use separate towels etc

Any more tips?

V Bored of it now and going to buy an NBC suit to wear at home as I’ve prob had one of my worst cycling years ever, not done a single event for the first time in about 10 years. I get the next cold before I’ve got over the previous one.

Bobbins.

PTFU

Have you got the heating on yet? Keep the house nice and cosy to ward off the nsaties helps too.

use this

Clearly the anti-bacterial property is very important to protect against colds.
