We all slept 12 hours last night, which for my kids is super out of character. I just got the notification from our app that DS1 is positive. So BRB while I go murder his dad. DS2 and I will be getting tested tomorrow. I am so sorry. I hope it's mild and quick 😞

My sister is 36 weeks pregnant.
Her son turned 2, and her ILs came into town to see them.
They left early and my sister couldn’t figure out why.
Turns out they had been knowingly exposed to Covid before they came, had started having minor symptoms, came anyways, and left when symptoms started to get worse.
Now my BIL (their son, my sisters husband) tested positive (happened quickly because he is a firefighter and couldn’t work his shift until he tested neg). My sister is FREAKING OUT. And so fucking angry.
She and my nephew are getting tested. But her OB won’t see her in person for 2 weeks, regardless of testing. And if she is positive, she is worried they will force a csection (she is trying sooo hard for a Vbac), and separate her and baby. She was supposed to have her 2yo’s well visit and shots (including the important Tdap booster) before her baby got here, and she was going to have a chance to ask about best practices for newborns during COVID. Can’t do that now.
She also just found out that her SIL- a pharmacist- knew her ILs had been exposed and had minor symptoms before they came and didn’t call them.
ILs also saw my parents (high risk bc my mom is diabetic), and didn’t warn them. Or dissuade them from visiting under the guise of “let’s just see less people” or whatever.
This has irreparably broken my sister and BIL’s trust and relationship with her ILs. It’s taking everything in me not to lay into her MIL on Facebook on her behalf.

Rebel, ugh, I'm so sorry, that is just... why do people do this to their own families?? Put their own families at such risk? Their unborn grandchild. I am so angry for you and your sister. Has she actually looked into her hospital/OB's protocol for if she tests positive? I forgot to ask at my last appointment and plan to at my next one.

Thank you for that suggestion- I just googled her hospital and it doesn’t appear they separate mom and baby. I might call and inquire further so I can maybe allay that concern for her.

Ugh I'm so sorry Rebel, I'd be livid. Its amazing the psychological tricks we (people) play on ourselves in thinking that family members are safe bc they are family members. Like of course we won't catch it from uncle Q, he's our uncle. Um no. I'm really really scared about how the holiday season is going to go w/my ILs and that whole side. They are reasonably cautious and we've seen them outside occassionally all summer. But now all the kids are in different schools and there's not going to be an outdoor thanksgiving dinner in new england but they are very much not "skip the holiday for safety" people.

How fucking horrible of them. And this, this shit right here is why we're on the mess we're in. People are goddamn selfish and don't respect others when it inconveniences them. I am so sorry. I have everything crossed that your sister is negative. Not sure what state you're in, but here in NY they do not separate baby from mom if she is CV+. They will also allow you to still have a vaginal birth, but you have to wear a mask during labor. She should be able to contact her OB and find out about these things.
