[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She is also a Type I diabetic herself, so high risk for COVID. I talked to her last week and she said she is "terrified" at the prospect of dealing with an infant (she's due in 4 weeks) and a kindergartener who will be in MCPS and is an anxious kid to begin with.

How can I help her? Normally I'd bring over food to them, but she is understandably nervous about people coming over, given COVID.

Hoping the expectant and post-partum moms here can give me tips. [/quote]

Terrified of taking care of the two children she chose to have?[/quote]

I have an infant, a rising kindergartener and will be teleworking and I can't say I'm thrilled about the situation. Have some compassion.

Agreed.  I have a newborn and a 4yo, and DH and I are both teleworking.  It took a long time to find any semblance of a rhythm for us, and the newborn likes to keep us on our toes.  Compassion is certainly lacking here.  Obviously, no one with an infant or due in the next few months planned to have a baby in a pandemic.
