Selfish I know

[AlexaT]

My parents are both elderly (70+) and we took them in a few year ago so that we could look after them.
I am also currently pregnant (20 weeks) but off sick from my full time job due to ongoing hyperemisis. My husband works in Morrisons and I am terrified that he is going to catch the coronavirus and pass it on to us at home.
My parents are in the vulnerable group and I am concerned about my unborn baby too. I don’t know what to do. I am really stressing out and don’t even want DH to go to work.
It’s come to the point where I am telling him to stop going work/call in sick or explain the situation to management (not that they would help or agree) about staying off due to this.

DH is saying that work is obvious crazy busy at the moment and extra and longer shifts are being offered to manage the demand, so not going to work would not sit well in this time of need.

I know I’m being incredibly selfish and know I am going to get backlash for this post.

I don’t know even know what I am asking on here really.

If London does go into lockdown; does this mean the shops are likely to close? Or would they still be open?

Sorry for rambling and for this (selfish) post.

Can your DH separate himself at home to protect you and your DP so he can continue to work without putting you all at risk? My friend has moved her DH into their caravan on the drive.

We considered this but with our 4yo DC and my hyperemisis, we are all very dependent on DH. Practically, it’s almost impossible to keep him isolated with the amount of help we get from him for our basic needs like bathing/feeding DC during my sickness. It’s also not an ideal solution as it would be constant isolation instead of the recommended 14 days due to constant exposure to the outside world.
