Long post .. sorry!

So my boyfriends brother in law called him in a frantic and was like I need you to get over here ASAP, your sister is in the hospital!! Knowing his sister is a postal worker he thought maybe she got into a horrific accident and didn’t ask questions and just hopped in the car and went. He was wearing his mask when we went into the house and was talking to his brother in law asking questions, found out she went in for a fever.. he then tell him he is leaving I have only 3 weeks left until my due date and not taking any chances, as he is leaving the hospital called and said she tested positive for covid 19.. Now why would you put him and myself in  jeopardy like that knowing I’m pregnant and she went in for a fever. We also live with my parents as we just moved back in recently. Like I’m f*cking pissed and so is my boyfriend. I told him he needs to quarantine in the room for 14 days even though he was wearing a mask and I made him strip and put all of his clothes in the washer. But now I am terrified that either myself, him, or my parents will get it. Now I’m afraid that he may not be able to go in the delivery room with me, and I’ll have to do this alone. Like I am so mad and upset. Like why would you over react like that over a fever and make it seem like something is extremely wrong!? Like I am 3 weeks away from my due date, what am I supposed to do!?? 🤬

Exactly!! We have stayed clear our entire pregnancy and of all people, his family are the ones to jeopardize us. Like I am so mad and so is he. Like why be selfish for one, and two why are you freaking out she went to the hospital for a fever and made it sound 1000% times worse and didn’t say what was wrong hntil

I would be livid. But don’t worry girl they are finding out that it’s not as easily transferred as they originally thought. Stay positive the baby don’t need that stress. I’m sorry u have such an idiot brother in law.

Id be livid AF! I was told by my nurse friend that as long as we wash our clothes in hot water. Shower in the hottest water we can stand. Drink hot tea or coffee. Amd just keep a normal cleanliness about hands ect. That we should be fine. Also sterilize the car. Where he touched ect. I know this is a stupid thing to say but try not to stress too hard. Think positive. Take all precautions. Goodluck to you momma

If possible get your boyfriend a rapid test in a week maybe? On average it should be long enough to see if he is positive or not

Just keep in mind it can take up to 14 days to show symptoms so those rapid tests aren’t always accurate if you’re testing at say day 7 after exposure

I did not know it was possible to get one, I will definitely do some research on where he can get a rapid test so we can rule out if he is positive or not. Thank you!

There’s an article today from WHO saying it’s rarely transmitted by people without symptoms...so...while I think you’re right to be mad that he’s reckless, perhaps being around him (don’t know how much you touched in his house) isn’t as high a risk as we thought before. They are learning things every day...Hope that you are ok and have a healthy delivery.

Its ok to be upset sorry to say but some people a simple-minded now take it dony let yourself stay too upset about it or you will be in the hospital by yourself because you can make yourself go into labor early just pray that you all will be ok and gave faith and you'll give birth to a beautiful healthy baby

Are you in a state that has testing? I’m in NY and basically all the pharmacies have testing. Have your bf call his primary care and explain the situation, i know if you have direct contact with a positive person you are usually eligible .. so irresponsible of his brother to risk you and your baby like that
