Anyone have any advice on building the immune system? My almost 2 year old just started school and I knew she would get sick but after her first week she had pink eye in both eyes, a pretty bad cough and now a double ear infection. As soon as I get home she goes in the bath tub and I thought it was working until last Friday & now every one is so sick.

Sadly that’s only way to build immune systems in kids is letting them be around others.
Once they’re around each other over time their germs aren’t as harmful just like at home but since it’s a new environment everyone’s germs are new to your child’s immune system.
That’s also why you guys got sick because the viruses/germs she brought home from daycare is new to your household too.
Ask her doctor if she’s old enough for a multivitamin and make sure your child is eating foods that help build the immune system too.
Give oranges for vitamin c . When my kids were little they were constantly sick. They eventually grow out of it
