jaygee , I don’t normally post much here, but I have some personal experience on this one. My kids bestie just had a stomach bug and fever. Parents took him to the dr and dr figured strep, and tested for it. The parents pushed for covid as well even though the dr thought they were extra. He was positive for covid. They’re almost done with their 24 day quarantine with it all. No one else got tested because no symptoms and they’re hard to get a hold of here. But a good reminder that for kids, covid often presents as gastric distress and a fever. Having this hit so close, I’d be pushing to get tested sooner that three days right now if you can. Thanks. That’s good info. I mentioned that to H too. Ugh. I’m waffling. You may have already decided by now, but our pedi wants kids tested if they have unexplained fever. So if it's not flu, strep, ear infection, etc, they want to test to rule COVID out. They are able to test in office though, so it's easy.

jaygee how's your little dude this morning? Temp is normal and he’s definitely back to his normal self. (Being a brat. Ugh). But he’s still being a little off about food. So I’m going to call the doctor in 30 minutes when they open and see what they advise. I think we are all going to get tested to make sure. We have a trip on Thursday with BIL and SIL so it would be good peace of mind. I can go at work so it’s just getting DS and H tested.

Doctor’s office said with no known positive exposure they don’t recommend testing. Said watch him over the weekend and if he’s not better, call back.
So maybe H and I will get tested and go from there.

I am typically really conservative I’m going to the doctor but I just got tripped up with covid and all of the unknowns. We don’t go anywhere anyways so we will just lay low this weekend.

The same thing here, every little sniffle has me on high alert. Allergies this year were a freaking JOY!

Also I'm so excited I told my butcher and her husband today about my mom coming and she was like "how nice, our family is growing" because she always says her clients are her family. It was sweet.

Why on earth did I choose today to do my curbside pickups?! Every single person in Virginia is out driving around.
I guess we're all still traveling for the long weekend.

There was a lot more traffic this morning than normal I thought, just around town. I know most of the area is doing distance learning, but I have a feeling we are at a tipping point for a new fall normal.
