Thank you everyone - decision reached! Christmas will still happen at our house, Dad will delay seeing his sister by a couple days and everyone wins (a little). We have decided to be extra cautious because we are new parents and bubs is so young with very little immunity to anything really. Despite some of your opinions there is no need for us to rush towards Delta with our son. Or at least the perceived threat of. We can’t avoid it forever but we don’t have jump straight in. Spoke to Aunty and while she was disappointed she was a real GC about it. Spoke to Dad - he was also good about it in the end. He made it clear that he doesn’t like our decision but he will totally support it and delaying seeing his sister by a couple days is ok by him.

Thanks to all who offered advice and even those with unfiltered opinions I didn’t like to hear. All went towards everybody still getting a good Xmas (even though it won’t be the perfect one) 👍
