To think my SIL should of told me

That before I went to meet her and her DS for a cuppa and catch up that he'd had a bug and been sick on and off for a good few days?

We met last week and he had just eaten lunch then ran around a soft play area and was sick but when I text her that night asking if he was feeling better she said he was fine and it was just the running around after eating.

I went to see her at hers today and DS threw up everywhere and she said "oh he's just getting over a bug. I didn't want to tell you that after last week i was sick as well as i didnt want uou to worry you might of picked something up" OK, if I was going to of caught something it would of happened by now but surely that's not the point?

I'm 39 weeks pregnant and don't really want to be exposed to a sickness bug!! Surely common sense would have you tell anyone coming into your house, let alone a heavily pregnant woman, that there has been a bug?

YA definitely NBU!

Very thoughtless of your sister. You could do without having to stop pushing to chunder. I'd be very cross.

Yanbu - she's a silly cow

YANBU - she shouldn't have taken him to out to lunch/soft play at all if he was ill - he could've passed the bug on to loads of people. Plus, it's pretty nasty when someone is sick when you are trying to eat.

Some people I do not understand - why would she not rearrange or invite you to hers. Even if she was going stir crazy, you could've gone for a gentle walk to get fresh air rather than bounding about.

And yes, being pregnant and sick isn't a good combination so she should've made that clear and you could have decided for yourself if you still wanted to see them.

YANBU - she is being very selfish!

Do we share an SIL. This is the sort of thing dh's SIL does. Peeves me off no end.

Sounds like it's a SIL thing to do! YANBU

I definitely agree she should've told you.

You might have picked the bug easily.

However, whereas you didn't catch anything from your SIL, you can't say if you have caught something, as from her DS it would not have happened by now yet.

I would've been really annoyed and would ask her from now on if they are not ill before meeting.

YANBU. Mine's got something involving a temperature, and now no temp but a rash, and I'm making sure he stays away from people until he's better. It's just sensible.

YANBU she is an idiot
