Wheezing... now that's a completely different story! :) <strong>Sagan,</strong> I believe that does have something to do with it. Growing up in a virtually sterile environment isn't necessary helpful for little ones' immune systems. Sometimes it's good to let them get dirty! (Just don't EAT the dirt!) ;) But heredity plays a big part. If allergies run in the family, your chances are higher for having allergies yourself. How newborns are fed also seems to play a role. Breastfed babies tend to have a lower incidence of allergies. Interesting stuff! Mrs. Micah,

Although, I grew up around animals and playing a lot outside in the dirt etc and I have no allergies. I've always wondered if its because I was exposed to all of these things early on that I've developed an immunity against them... because I also know other people who grew up in an EXTRA clean environment and they're allergic to just about everything. Funny how it sometimes works like that. Theres nothing better than clean sheets!

At this time of year, leaving the windows open means plenty of sniffles (though it's a bit better than a couple weeks ago). But we don't have to run the a/c and I can manage a sniffle.
