piratecat , DS tested positive on Tuesday. In the last 10 days, he's only been around the rest of us and my mom indoors (we've all tested negative the last 3 days) - except for one 2-minute masked bathroom break at a rest stop. He was the only one not to get it when we had it in May. I don't know where he picked it up. Also I HATE that your camp is rented and you can't isolate there like your husband did. Not fair. This virus is so weird!

I was nursing constantly and he’d bring me a bowl of soup. Sir, I cannot eat this with a newborn attached to me, I will drip it all over the baby, do you know me at all. 😅

I finally got in to see a doc for my cough. She was amazing and I’m going to make her my PCP. And Dr ordered me an inhaler and steroids. She thinks I have inflammation in my lungs and post covid cough that lasts about 3 months. So yay. 3 months of this cough is going to be the reason I finally piss my pants while pregnant. I’ve gotten close. I’m full of rage at DH for giving me covid. Ugh. I’m so sorry. I had pneumonia the last few weeks of my second pregnancy and the first few weeks postpartum. I definitely pissed myself at least once and coughing my lung up while recovering from a c-section sucked balls. 😭 That shit is no joke - it sounds like your doctor is taking good care of you, but don’t be shy about following up if things don’t improve or take a turn for the worse!

I'm taking my 4 year old in for her second Moderna shot this afternoon. She doesn't know it yet.
Sorry kid!

The lymph nodes on the side I got my booster are pretty swollen. That hasn’t happened before, but the achey bones feeling is the same. Can’t complain though since it means my immune system is responding!

Kid took the shot as well as expected, which is to say horribly. I had her clamped as tight as I could be she still managed to flail about enough that the needle was bent. She said the vaccine went in so I just have to trust her.
Get your crap together kid.

Toddler has a hot spot on his injection site but no symptoms otherwise. And the hospital clinic here impressed me so much. Balloon art, goodie bags, snacks and water, a Disney movie on a giant screen, and best of all NO waiting in line before the jab.

Can’t complain though since it means my immune system is responding! It’s happened to me with each shot but it gets worse each time. Last time it was so big I took a picture of it and sent it to my friend and she was shocked. But I took Advil at night because it became uncomfortable to sleep with after two days and it went down within a week.

I appreciate the anecdote because it’s weirding me out 😂 I don’t think I’ll be able to sleep on that side tonight, it’s pretty tender. Our bodies are wild!

I also dropped my phone on them more times than I care to admit

My husband brought me avocado toast this morning, which is delicious, but man, this coffee is abysmal. 🥴

As long as the new boosters are actually available in September, I’m ok with this. I’d rather get the new formulation for over winter since it sounds like you can’t effectively piggyback them at this point.

My husband sent me a picture of my 1YO wearing my big kid’s underwear (because he wanted to and also they fit?!) and I told him this is a great opportunity to start potty training him. 😈😅

Yes, perhaps, I shall sign him up. He only makes iced coffee for himself. The hot coffee is not hot enough and also tastes like coffee water. NOT GOOD.

Did I see somewhere (here probably) that incubation period for the current variant is shorter? I'm trying to schedule another round of PCRs for the kids and wondering if Sunday (day 4 from my positive test) would be good or is day 5-7 still best?

My sister’s family was going to visit this weekend so obviously that’s not happening. We’ve only seen them once during the pandemic and I was really looking forward to it. Oh damn I'm sorry 😞

Gievn his poor life choices about pants, this is a point in his favor. He even foamed the milk in my coffee this morning. Although it wasn't nearly hot enough. And I can't microwave my coffee eleventy times like I usually do. 😭 This drove me crazy when I was stuck in Jamaica. I didn't have hot coffee for over 2 weeks.

The hot coffee is not hot enough and also tastes like coffee water. NOT GOOD. Hot brown water (what we call in-room hotel coffee) is bad enough but if it's not even hot, yikes

I’ve been seeing 2-5 days for those vaccinated because symptoms will kick in earlier.
