Heartbreaking Dilemma

So grandbaby # 5 is being induced tomorrow morning.  I am sick as a dog. Nor so much that I couldn't drive there,  but enough that a am weak, sore, throat and chest hurt and fever here and there.  I REALLY want to be there, but I shouldn't, right??? I've never missed one. And it will break my heart. Maybe I could go and just not hold her? Just see her?

No you should stay home if you are sick. Mom and baby dont need to catch anything and you need to rest.

It's not heartbreaking its a joyous time. Missing the birth is disappointing but you have all your life to love that baby up. Perspective.

It's okay to not be present for the birth, O4. Please do not feel guilty. It's more important to keep everyone healthy.

Now go get better!

Girl, keep your azz home! You need to rest so you can get better!
P.S. if you do go please wear a mask around everyone so they don't  get sick.

Im staying home. They want me there no matter, but I would feel horrible if I made someone sick. Plus, I don't need to pick up anything else...

You absolutely cannot go hold a newborn if you are sick. You are making the right choice.

My mom always went to my sisters to help after her births. And they should not want you to
Go
Being sick as a dog. You’re making the right choice and this is a joyful occasion. Congratulations!

Stay home; rest; recuperate;

THEN see the new family. But no NEVER
go to see a new-born if you are sick.
You can see them on Facebook, Twitter,
etc., but please, keep the germs to
yourself. They will love you even more
for this.

It is not a "heartbreaking dilemma"; it
is being cognizant of what you could
bring to the Mom and Baby. You will
be able to visit soon. "Baby" will not
know the difference, and "Mom" will
thank you for your consideration.

And BTW, congratulations, Grandma!

Have you seen a doctor, young lady? I'm glad you decided to stay home.

They are making everyone wear masks. I think that's awesome. We all look like zombies though...

I'm glad you went for medical help. You said you were having chest pain and trouble breathing . . . that concerned me. Did G go with you? Is he feeling any better?

It's strep. So I can't see the baby for 2 weeks. I am beside myself. I can't stop crying....

Two weeks? What the heck? What are antibiotics good for, anyway!

Adult strep sucks. I'm sorry.

I think it's just a precaution because it's so bad this year. She is more worried about the parents getting it than the baby...

I'm so sorry to hear that, Oh4.

The important thing is to get better, soon.

Hugs to you.

Follow the doctors orders. After the tragic turn of events I've witnessed due to strep, just stay away until the doctor gives the ok.

Skype with them!

Aww, I'm so sorry, O4. But you need to heal. Use these next two weeks to recover and then spend lots of time with the new grandbaby.

FaceTime and Skype are awesome in times like these.

Glad you went to the doctor!!
