Due to my mum living in another country I haven't seen her in over 18 months.
Understandably she's desperate to visit once baby is born and will probably come when he is 3 or 4 weeks old (late July/early august). At the moment she would need to isolate for 5 days on arrival (she will do the early test to release thing)
She's had both jabs and is asking if she can isolate with us.
I'm hesitant as me, DH and baby are unlikely to even have had first jabs by then, so even though she is protected, we are not. However I understand she is desperate to see us after so long and feel mean saying no, especially as the vaccine supposedly reduces the risk of passing it on (I think but it's hard to find information on this)
If she does, she will need to properly socially distance from us while in the house until she gets the all clear and I know she will want to pick up/cuddle baby etc and likely be upset with me for not letting her. (Fully prepared to stand my ground on that by the way....I'm the one that's been growing this baby for 9 months but I know it will cause aggro)
Anyway just wondered how others would handle this?
