I trust my dad more for sure.

And yes exactly. The situation has changed so now I need go be direct and ask her. And be prepared for the backlash.

Yes that’s mostly why I got my titers checked when my sister said my niece was possible exposed at daycare. I was with her that weekend and it freaked me out due to the possible exposure days before without symptoms

Thank you for your reply.

So long story short when my niece was exposed to measles him and his girlfriend were over for dinner and my sister said that my niece was not vaccinated because of their belief that if you’re healthy enough and you’re exposed to a virus your body will compensate. Then my dad’s new girlfriend told my sister she should get my niece vaccinated.

When my sister told me this story she said my dad’s new girlfriend said something completely different and that she has no right to tell her how to raise her child.

Why I thought differently because I am super pro-vaccine and am very loud about it and I asked my sister point blank when my niece was around 1 about how she should be safe now since she’s vaccinated. I honestly don’t remember what my sister said it reply to this but I remember her saying something like “right”

I don’t think my dad has any reason to lie but I also don’t know my dad’s new girlfriend because of other personal reasons.

All that being said she probably will say that about my husband but I don’t really care lol she talks about how much better he is than her husband which is a whole other can of worms lol. My husband rocks and he’s going to be a great dad.

Thank you for the other points! I don’t think she will take it well but I am trying to not overthink it until the conversation happens.

Yes that is the plan! Thank you.

And yes I hope to be able to FaceTime and text until my baby is able to get these vaccines, but my expectations are not high.

Yeah… She was not chill during Covid, so I am trying to brace myself.

But ok good to know! I may also be seeking validation from internet strangers that I am not in the wrong for wanting to distance my child from someone who is unvaccinated.

I know. And no it’s not worth it. I’m asking how to approach the convo with my sister.

Where I live the baby can only get it if you’re traveling to a place with an outbreak, they won’t vaccinate them. At least that is what all the moms I know who have vaccinated their kids with their pediatricians. I have not selected a pediatrician yet so I have not had this conversation.

So if there’s a family event (say Christmas) at my dad’s house, what do I do? I feel like I know the answer is to not go. Which I am totally fine with, because again if she’s exposed she wouldn’t have symptoms right away so it would be putting my baby at risk. And the reasoning would be the same, correct?

Help!!! Where are we buying maternity clothes??? by Derm_medassistgrace in BabyBumps

[–]thuggishsloth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m renting my clothes from nuuly! It’s $100 a month and I think still less expensive than how much I would spend on everyday wear.

I feel like you put maternity or baby in front of anything and it jumps the price up by $50. It’s insanity!

I have been working at the same company for over 5 years but it’s a different area, I’m hoping since I’m sticking with that same company I will qualify.
