Newborn has been exposed to a virus
I'm freaking out. The day before yesterday, when LO was 9 days old, we visited my mother. Today she called me to say she has a sore throat, a runny nose and a mild fever.
I didn't let anyone see my first for two months, but that was a winter baby. I figured we'd be all right as it was May and my mother doesn't have any kids around and generally isn't around people much.
I understand I'm quite sleep deprived and hormonal, but I've basically already convinced myself that any minute now the baby will develop symptoms and we'll end up hospitalised. If there's any comfort someone could provide to help me get off this downward spiral, I would be extremely grateful.
