Coronavirus and visitors

Jen

Hi all,

I’m currently 29 weeks pregnant and due my first baby in July. I’ve been feeling quite anxious about this for a while now and wondered what other people’s opinions were.

Are there any boundaries or precautions you are planning to put in for family or friends who want to visit when baby is born regarding coronavirus?

I’m aware that cases are pretty low at the moment and the vaccination program has been successful so far but I’m feeling pretty cautious as more restrictions are eased and more people are mixing.

Is it fair to ask visitors to test before they come? Restrict their contacts a week before hand? Wear a mask? Not kiss baby? (I know it’s hard to tell what situation will be like in July but wanting to have clear boundaries set out to avoid having a freak out after visitors leave).

I also have a family member who is anti-mask, anti-vax and probably anti-testing so I know this will also cause some tension.

Help!! Not sure if I’m being over the top so would appreciate any input.

Thanks!
