I hate that this baby is being born in pandemic ... I’m being induced on Friday and now the talks about when people can come see her are starting. I already said long before covid that I don’t want anyone staying at my house.. I don’t have room for everyone and my family always expects me to “host” - provide food, entertainment etc. and I know they’ll still expect it. My mom will bring my siblings who are bratty teens and they won’t be helpful, just in the way. And my sister will want to bring her husband and kids and the kids are not well behaved in the least bit. So I want everyone to get a hotel if they come, plus I want to breastfeed and I really don’t want my teenage brother or my brother in law in the house while I’m trying to feed and pump in the middle of the night and no one can help me with that anyway so there’s no point in them being here overnight if they can’t help so I can sleep.

.. but now with covid I feel like if I ask everyone to quarantine for 2 weeks before coming then staying in a hotel defeats the whole purpose of the quarantine.

My husbands family lives in our state so they can easily just quarantine and go home and my in-laws have already said they’ll stay in quarantine and get tested periodically so they can come visit.

So now I feel like I’m gonna have my family giving me an issue over my husbands family being around all the time when they can’t.

Ugh seriously f&$% covid!

Idk how to handle this- I know I need to talk to the doctor but my family is just so difficult 😑

What is everyone else’s plan for this??
