Dd isolating, feel like I have a short fuse

[Youaremysunshine09]

Dd (6) is isolating as she was confirmed to have been a close contact with a positive case. Weather has been good the past few days, she has been out in the garden but of course hasn't been anywhere else.

I feel so guilty tonight because I feel like I have such a short fuse today, she has been a bit non stop today, asking me to play every 2 minutes and when I say not just now, guilt tripping me that she doesn't have anyone to play with. This was literally half an hour after I had sat and played at dolls with her so not like I say not just now all the time.

But I'm left feeling like crap tonight because I feel I don't do enough like some of the mums on social media, doing arty things & baking etc alllllll day long.

I'm also exhausted because I've just started on a new medication and I just feel so drained and guilty for not wanting to play with her every minute of the day.

Aibu? Should I be playing when she wants to and worry about everything else later?

What is school providing for her? I'd expect there to be some learning provided and some interaction with her class- eg via iPad or similar. If she had school work to do that might help keep her busy and occupied.
I know in my school we'd be providing that.

Could you stick something on the TV for her?
Snuggle up and just both relax together

Don't look at other mums on social media, it's awful! They only show what they want you to see.
I agree with putting a film/ series on and snuggling on the sofa

I would be quite clear with her about when you will play with her and when you expect her to play alone. E.g. “Mummy will play dolls with you now. When we’re finished you need to read/draw/play by yourself for half an hour. Then you can have some TV.”
