I think it’s ok if my family comes over during Easter holidays despite us having a poorly toddler. The said toddler has been coughing and vomiting yesterday (today only coughing and temp). My sister is coming to visit with her 2 children. My DH thinks they should wait and that we need to tell them that DD is a little poorly. They are driving down from Scotland so it’s not that easy and I think life just happens.
AIBU?
Would you come visit you family with an ill child?

No not if they are vomiting. A cold yes. Vomiting bug no.

OMG no of course not😂😂😂😂 What are you actually thinking? Would you want someone in your home if you were vomiting?? Not to mention the risk to Dsis kids she has no idea about. Honestly 🤦♀️

She's not vomiting now. She's past that.
In that situation I'd probably tell them that she was unwell yesterday, but improving now.
Toddlers are constantly picking up stuff. When a trip is hard to arrange, you could be constantly cancelling. You certainly don't decide to cancel for them so your DH is unreasonable
