Got turned away from the door at nursery this morning (on my way to work) as son has been unwell, high fever, a bit lethargic, not eating and loose nappies x2 over two days. I put all this down to teething as he has had very similar in the past also he has runny nose and dribbling alot, biting etc. I didnt want to send him in but i am a lone parent basically his dad only has him one day a week and when i asked if he could take him as i didnt want him im nursery he refused to take time off work and i have no carers leave left due to him having covid, previous sickness etc. Anyway they tell me we cant take him in as have had a vomiting bug in his room since monday? Shouldnt i of been notified via their app or email as i always thought hes just teething but hasnt been himself. They also did the same with an outbreak of foot and mouth. I travelled back to my home country a day later i notice blisters etc and took him to aed as i didnt know what it was at the time. I then get an email a few days later saying theyve had foot and mouth in his room for over two weeks new cases. Shouldnt u be notified if theres even one just to be mindful and keep an eye out? Also had i of known about vomiting bug i may of been able to make arangements or try and swap shifts

@LoveMyPiano. I see, but why the use of capitals in 'misread' then? Anyway, I'm relieved to hear I misinterpreted your meaning.

Wow, we're properly derailing this thread, aren't we...? Grin

The caps were just for emphasis, not to "correct" you re. misread/misinterpret; I was rushing on low battery and didn't scroll down to italicise, so my fault - and a classic example of how words on a screen lose something, and often result in misundstanding (and possible misinterpretation) Smile

Yes, I hope it can get back on track, but I think I shall just zip my lip.

A high fever is never caused by teething. YABU.
