Sick Kid WWPD?

[dixeedeluxe]

I'd cancel.

[TrudyCampbell]

100% cancel.

It sucks but I'd cancel

I agree with cancel. Daycare rules are 24 hours fever free. I figure that's the socially acceptable standard. I'm sorry!

[katfco]

I'm sorry, but a fevered kid near babies and pregnant women? That sounds like a cancel. Maybe if the fever came down this evening, I'd chance it.

It sucks but I would cancel.

I would cancel. I know if I were on the other side of this scenario I would appreciate the cancellation, even though it stinks for you guys.

[The Foozzler]

Yeah, that is a sucky situation. But for the sake of everyone involved, you have to cancel.

I would cancel unless you knew it was an ear infection or something and not contagious.

Tough call. H gets a low grade fever with EVERY cold. It's just a cold and I think it's because of all the ear infection / ear troubles he has. With his background, I personally wouldn't cancel.

I feel like the extended family will appreciate it but MIL/SIL will be irritated/roll their eyes. We don't spend a whole lot of time with them and they think I'm a helicopter type parent so I know I'll catch some flack. It's also supposed to be crappy weather and I'm not thinking bringing a sick kid out in it is a good idea.

If they feel like they're going to miss out on grand baby time, is there a possibility of scheduling a makeup time for them? I'm sorry, sounds like you're stuck between a rock and a hard place, but hopefully they're not the type to hold onto it. Sick baby trumps all.

I'm in the same boat with my kid. He's had a fever since monday. I told my mil we prolly won't come but I will still send my husband

I was thinking of stopping by my sisters with my kids (last minute as I was planning on staying home)but Elias has the same thing going on. (Has stayed around 100.5-101 though)I told my sister we should probably stay home and she was like, "Well see how he is tomorrow." And then later she was all, "My kids are stuffy and coughing too, no biggie." Lol. She is never one to worry about sick kids or care if yours is a little sick unless it's something bad. But she is probably more breezy than most. Anyway I think I'm going to keep him home tomorrow, unless it's calmed down more by tomorrow.

Maybe see how she feels tomorrow but inform the host how she's doing today and then go off their reaction?

Crappy weather makes me want to say no though. You don't want to drag her out in the cold if she's not feeling well. Maybe have H go and stay home with her? I'm sorry.

Also you can't please everyone, whether you go or stay home someone will be annoyed lol.
