I hate this..COVID sucks

I was exposed to COVID almost a week ago, starting having symptoms on Wednesday that have been getting worse, and got officially tested today. Here is what sucks, the timing....I am now quarantined to my bedroom at 38 weeks, my husband in the other room. We do not interact other than talking from a distance with masks on. We don’t touch, spend time together, or anything. Why? Because the hospital won’t allow him to be at the birth if he is sick when I go into labor. Even if babe doesn’t come on her own in the next bit of time, we are inducing in less than two weeks.

I had this realization, if my test comes back positive, I have to stay in quarantine until two days before we induce. That means that my husband and I are going to hardly see each other until right before we have a baby. The last couple weeks we were going to finish getting things ready together, maybe do a short get away, and have fun before everything changes. Now it will be “oh my gosh. I haven’t seen you in weeks, also, now we are parents!”

It is what it is and I can’t change it if that is the case. I want him to be there and he wants to be there so we will do what we must to make that happen, but man.... it just sucks.
