Yes, you both stay home for 14 days. Link to latest info is www.gov.uk/government/publications/covid-19-stay-at-home-guidance/stay-at-home-guidance-for-households-with-possible-coronavirus-covid-19-infection

Yes, you have the Corona symptoms so you both (and baby) need to self isolate for14 days.

Yes. Doesn't matter you're due back. Don't go out. Please, for the immunosuppressed in your community.

Get someone to bring you nappies and food and formula if needed.

MajesticWhine · 17/03/2020 22:23

yes, you should be staying home, all of you.

Yep.

You have symptoms and need to self isolate for 7 days according to current guidance. He has to self-isolate for 14 days because this assumes he is about to catch it - you are simply further down the path than he is.
