[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 180268, member: 3444"] Well, as someone with a less-than-tidy house AND a child with IBD, I have to remind you that the "cleanliness theory" is just a theory. If you don't have the genes for IBD, your odds of developing it are very slim. And even if you do have the genes, there have to be enough of the right triggers to activate those genes. Then again, my IBD-er is my oldest, and yes, my house WAS cleaner when it was just him, and yes, he did spend time in the NICU and was on heavy antibiotics for his first three weeks, as well as lots of antibiotics from about age 18 mos until age 4 due to chronic ear infections... so who knows? It's water under the bridge for him at this point. [/QUOTE]
