[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Sending your older kid to preschool and not attending Thanksgiving or Christmas is a hard sell.  Pick a lane.[/b]

I had two winter babies (pre-pandemic) and took steps to avoid illness.  I also didn’t attend Christmas with days-old babies.  I’m a SAHM and my older child was turning 3 when my younger child was born.  My older child wasn’t in preschool yet so the 3 of us were just…home. [/quote]

This. You’re being inconsistent. It’d be like insisting on the best possible child safety car seat for your infant to ride in, and then putting it, and the baby, loose in the bed of a pickup. You’ve lost the plot and you’re acting emotionally.[/quote]

Lol.  If you were to talk to a pediatrician, they would likely advise you to limit your newborn’s exposures until they can get more of their vaccines.  This has always been pretty standard advice.  But they’re not telling you you have to lock down the rest of your family at home.  Some of you are such black and white thinkers.  Fevers in young infants are no joke, my nephew was admitted to the hospital when he got one.  [/quote]
