Baby DD is 8 months old and was recently in hospital very poorly on oxygen and very close to being tube fed. We were told when she was finally allowed home that we must do what we can to avoid her getting ill again for the time being whilst she fully recovers or she could end up back in.
For the last week and a half she's been at home with me, not been going to nursery or any of the baby classes she usually goes to etc.. DH has been working from home and we've generally been keeping ourselves to ourselves. She is still very wheezy but slowly improving.
My husband has a son from a previous relationship, my DSC. He has stayed with us as he usually does and is due tonight for 3 days however his Mum has just told DH he is unwell with a bad cold, headache and sore throat.
AIBU to say to DH that he really can't come here when he's so unwell?
I feel really bad and it's not something I would ever usually suggest but this is exactly the kind of thing we were told to avoid with DD whilst she builds her strength back up.
If I had family close by I'd try and stay somewhere else with DD but unfortunately I don't.
We aren't at all the types to refuse to have DSS when he's ill usually, there have been other times where he's stayed here for longer when he's got something and we thought it best to leave him be where he was rather that to-ing and fro-ing.
