Been coughing through the night with a tickly throat..I'm a teacher so booked a test for this morning.

Issue is I'll have toddler in the pram as DH working away!

Is this allowed?? Can't find anything online! Dont want to wait for a home test as need to be back in school ASAP assuming it's negative!

She's been with you anyway so I can't see why not

If you were a single parent you would have no choice x

Thanks! It was fine.. actually enjoyed the walk down in case it's my last for a few weeks!

No one about and no one else at the test centre.., was a lovely man talking me through it and chatting to the little one!

Hoping it's negative though as so much work to finish and can't do that with a rampaging toddler not at nursery!

Fingers crossed for you

Good luck. Tests are coming back really quick at the moment. I had one 9am Monday and received results on email at 3am Tuesday! The text came a bit later at 6am.

@TheWristBoundLatexBitch that's what jm hoping! Assuming back to work as normal tomorrow!

Feeling a bit crappy but I never slept last night

Good luck op. But take care of yourself either way and stop worrying about work! Flowers

Good luck. DS was tested at 8am this morning, am crossing everything for quick negative result too! I work in acute mental health services (NHS) and we’re so short from sickness/COVID that I’m one of the only qualified staff members some days! Need to get back!

Good luck OP. Curious to know your result.

THATbasicSNOWFLAKE · 10/12/2020 12:51
