To send dd to nursery

[CrispsAndChoc]

DD1 and DH had positive Covid tests last month and we are sure DD2 had it too then but she really fought against the test so I don’t think it picked it up. They all isolated together (I had to go to work).

I thought I’d escaped it but now I have tested positive. I feel run down and could do with a rest. DD1 will have to stay in with me as school is closed for Christmas but could I send DD2 to nursery? Her LFT today was negative and I’ll do another one before sending her tomorrow. She’s is 2 years old.

So, aibu to send DD2 to nursery when I have Covid and am isolating.

You’re selfish imo

I wouldn't especially so close to Christmas but we're still not allowed to send our children to nursery if anyone in the house tests positive.

Problem is the government rules were you could go to school, nursery, work etc even if someone in your household had tested positive. Which is why it is rampant now. One of my dc and my th had it 5 weeks ago and can only have come from school, I work in the same school and know that my dc yr group was rife with it and was until the end of term. I now have it after testing positive over the weekend, again had to come from school as I have been no where else and long past the period I could have caught it from my dc and dh. We will now all isolate over Xmas. I am pretty annoyed, not at the children in school or their parents as they followed the rules, but at the government who have done nothing to stop this, even taking away the basic rule of wearing a mask which would have been so simple to keep in place. This close to Xmas I wouldn't send her in.
