My kids are being tested for having the flu. It's awful. I didn't get it and it could cause a big problem. I'd say get it. I have a 2-5-7 year old that are potty trained with diaper rash u wouldn't believe. My 5 year old is in gauze diapers and is deathly afraid to poop. It took half a tube of a&d to convince him it'd just slide out. :(
