Covid

How are you guys handling Covid? Like are you considering it just a cold really and not worrying too much if baby gets it? My husband just texted positive. Baby and I both tested negative. I’m just so conflicted if we should be treating it like just a cold and let my husband still be around and with baby or if we should try to isolate from him as much as possible still. Baby is going through his regression right now too so I’m absolutely dying doing it by myself.

Dang this is hard. Is it possible to someone come to the home to help out? If not, &’ yu absolutely need him, have him where a mask.

I normally would have family that could come out and help but my parents just went out of state to see my dads brother that just had a stroke, my brother and his family are busy with a death in the family on my sister in laws side. And my husbands mom works ☹️ our family just can’t catch a break right now

When my husband had COVID before Christmas he wore a mask in the house and slept in the guest bedroom ,and neither me or my son caught it. Now that my son has been in daycare for 5 days me and him are both terribly sick. I haven’t tested yet, but I think we have COVID. So we ended up with it anyway 🥴

I don’t think my husband would have masked like that if 1. we weren’t getting ready to travel for the holidays and 2. He had just brought RSV home a few weeks earlier.

I’m so sorry your both sick ☹️ my baby got sick his first week of daycare too. Did your husband help out with your baby while he had covid? Like help feed him, change diapers, etc?

Yeah! He just wore a good mask. I work in healthcare and I always have a stash of N95 and KN95s on hand. The only different thing he truly did was sleep in the guest bedroom since he can’t mask at night. But he kept his ringer on and I just called him if I needed him.
