Quarantining before birth?

Question

Is any ones doctor making them quarantine before giving birth? My doctor said they do a covid test as soon as I get there I’m just wondering for safety precautions if it would be smart to quarantine 2 weeks prior to the due date or if any ones doctor took them out of work for this?

Answer

We’re doing this, quarantining for about 10 days before so taking our 7 year old out of school to isolate. We have to as I can’t imagine testing positive and having to go through this without my husband.

Answer

My last appt (Tues) my Dr said we were going to start covid testing every appt because even if i get tested the day of, we're not going to get the results for another 24-48 hours after and I'd have baby before then. Quarantining is optional.
But I just tested positive, so Idk what happens now 🤷

Answer

Nope, I’ll have a test at 28 weeks. I don’t see many people anyway. My husband works at the hospital so he can’t really quarantine but they don’t require the partner to be tested here. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

They are not requiring the quarantine but we are doing 14 days before my scheduled delivery. I will go 48 hours before to take Covid test as results will determine the plan for intake/delivery. But it's completely by choice that we are quarantining. I just want the process to be as smooth as possible.

Answer

We are going to as if my boyfriend tests positive he won’t be allowed in so we’re going to quarantine so he more than likely tests negative 👍

Answer

My OB recommend to really keep the "bubble" small for 3 weeks prior to due date. Which for me means not a whole lot of changes. I will just make sure husband is more safe. And probably do pick up groceries. I have a toddler and they go to daycare so germs are an always.

Answer

No. I’m working up until I go into labor. With my job, though I’ve been here over a year, I started out as a contractor with them for the first 6 months and so my one year with the company is technically like the day before my due date. In general my job is pretty safe, so I’m not worried, but my fiancé is a first responder and is taking off 2 weeks prior to our due date.

Answer

My hospital/ doctor don’t require quarantine or test before being admitted for L&D. Just a questionnaire and temperature check. But we are 6 weeks out and already quarantining until baby comes. (Only quarantine exception we make is meeting with friends outside with masks on 10 feet away). We both work from home.

Answer

I’m a SAHM.  So I will be quarantining for two weeks prior to my c section. My husband works still. He’s being super cautious. So no grocery stores or anything like that for us.  He will have a rapid Covid test done prior to the c section, and I will be tested within the week before.

Answer

My husband works from home and only goes out if absolutely needed so he had been quarantining this whole time basically. He also take care of our 2 y/o at home so she is good.  My doctor is having me quarantine for 10 days before my due date. So as a teacher I just start my maternity leave sooner than originally planned.
