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.

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.
