Advice Please.

My daughter and I both come under the 'at risk' category, she is 7months pregnant and I am over 70.When her daughter (my granddaughter) outgrew her baby clothes, cot etc, they were put into my loft as I had plenty of room and it is dry up there, but now my daughter wants to come round to get the things out of the loft to get them ready for the new baby .As I've been self isolating, would it be safe for my daughter, her husband and my granddaughter to come round so they can get the baby stuff out of the loft?

[bednobs]

are u self isolating just because you are at risk, or because u have syptoms?

[barry1010]

If none of you are showing any symptoms I wouldn't worry about it.

[diddlydo]

I think it would be more sensible if just your son-in-law came round, kept away from you, retrieved the clothes and then left.

[Barsel]

As far as I am aware, none of us have symptoms at the moment, but I am aware that these things can lie dormant for several days.
diddlydo, I did suggest this but my daughter put the stuff up there herself about 5 yrs ago and she isn't sure herself what is up there and she thinks her hubby wouldn't have a clue.:-)

[bednobs]

then he should jut take everything baby related

[Apc2604]

Totally agree with Diddly. And your son inlaw should wash his hands thoroughly before coming and make sure he stays 6ft away from you. There is no point in self isolating and letting your family visit. My son will be shopping for us and will not be coming in with the shopping.

I agree with the previous suggestions...son in law only, he should handwash thoroughly before and after visit and should keep his distance from you. He can take everything baby and sort it at home

[Barsel]

I think that's a good suggestion of just allowing my son-in- law to come. I will run it by my daughter again and see if I can persuade her to just trust him. Thanks everyone.

[Apc2604]

Sorry Barsel your last post wasn't showing when I started mine. I agree with Bednobs last post. Hopefully he can recognise babythings!

[woofgang]

put your foot down for the sake of your family. If she doesn't agree to your sensible terms tell her its no go.

[Barsel]

Apc2604 well yes you would think so, but like a lot of women, my daughter always thinks some men don't always see what's under their nose. :-) As it's 5 yrs since the stuff went up there, she can't remember otherwise she could write him a list.Lol.

[Barsel]

woofgang will do.
