I have a 6 week old baby so he was born right in the middle of lockdown. I also have a toddler aged 4. Because of lockdown I’ve been unable to do the things I did in my first maternity leave I.e meeting up with friends, coffee, lunch , shopping and having play dates . I also can’t take my toddler to soft play, swimming or the park etc. Apart from walking I don’t really get out as there is nothing much to do. Now the shops are open would it be unreasonable to go with my brand new baby or am I putting him in harms way? We used to get told try to only go to the supermarket if essential and go alone . Now we are being encouraged to do non essential shopping and I feel it’s something I would like to do just to get out. However I doubt my toddler would wear a mask for any length of time or not touch it. I’m also worried about lack of toilets. Anyone else have these doubts ?
