Can you get sick from a baby?

[Zysoclaplem]

I was baby sitting my 2 week old niece again yesterday, and she baby-sneezed on me (she isn't sick, she just sneezed, I think). I thought it was the cutest thing until I woke up last night coughing and with a bad sore throat and a runny nose.
What are the chances I caught something from her? Because I also went to Wal-mart yesterday.

I thought babies were identical to the rest of us biologically.

You guys should keep a close eye on her in case she develops similar symptoms. Babies that age can have a difficult time dealing with colds and flu.

That's why I said biologically and not physically.

Viruses don't discriminate.

It's irrelevant if he's been around kids... I would assume he knows that "kids" are humans like him?

Unbelievable OP.

Maybe, but it's basic bio. They're the same species as you, so they carry and are subject to the same stuff.
