Would you be mad, or am I overreacting? My mom bf found out she had covid last night. Well, today, he decides he goes over to her place and brings her stuff. Yes, he’s wearing a mask doesn’t have a shot. I don’t either. I’m 39 weeks pregnant, and my son has asthma. He expects me not to be mad and says I’m annoying. What would you do?

I would honestly tell him he has to quarantine away from you for a few days and maybe take a rapid test to be sure he doesn’t contract it and spread it to you. You have every right to be upset that he’s putting you at risk, obviously you’re not just being rude because he’s helping his mother out.

No, I think it’s perfectly fine that he did especially since he took precaution.

You do have a right to be upset that he is chancing bringing it home to you and your child while pregnant, but you have no right to be upset that he’s taking care of his mother. Compromise. Since he is taking care of her, he should either stay with her while he’s taking care of her or only do door drop offs.

He called you annoying?
He needs to be able to take care of her as long as he is responsible an takes precautions…life is short an if something were to happen to her he needs to have spent that time helping her! I’m sure you would want to take care of yours if the shoe was on the other foot!!

That’s his mom and you only have one mom let him take care of her and get her what she needs cause she may not have someone else cause I’m sure her knowing your pregnant if she had a choice she would had ask someone else just ask him when he comes back to wear a mask and quartine away from you guys until he can get tested and see if he is ok

At 39 weeks, that’s a real shit time for him to be around someone who is COVID +. If he dropped off some stuff on the doorstep and wasn’t around her, that’s one thing. Actually going in her house and being around her, that’s not ok. I’d tell him he is in quarantine now and make him stay away from you.
At 39 weeks he won’t be able to be at the birth if he gets COVID and you could be separated from baby if you get COVID. So yea I’d be angry.

You are over reacting it’s his mom and he is taking precautions I do understand your point but let’s take a step back would be reacting the same way if this was your mother and she needing help would you deny her help. All I am saying there is a way of handling and speaking to people especially to the father of the child you are bringing into this world, he needs to quarantine himself for a couple of days and get a test that is all just to be sure that he is not contagious. If he took precaution and he was careful and follow the guidelines you don’t need to get all bend out of shape. Good luck

Don’t criticize her for not being vaccinated while pregnant!
How quick we forget vaccines 
take 
YEARS of testing so a rapid 8month produced vaccine I’m not running and jumping to get my damn self.
I’ll take my chances -like I’ve been doing the past year and a half.!
As contagious as it claims to be I’m SURE I’ve come in contact at some point within the last 15months of this virus, with being at the damn grocery store alone. Even masked:mask:. 
please.
So cut her some slack. I wouldn’t be jumping at the chance to inject myself and baby with said vaccine. Next thing you know, women who are pregnant abs have taken the covid 19 vaccine:raised_back_of_hand:t5:please. Y’all act like the cdc doesn’t change what they say week to week:sob:foh
Nobody fkng knows.! And that’s real.
I would support his decision to support his mother AS HE Should.but i would ask him to stay there until she is better then both can get testing and quarantine before he comes back home to you.

Thats his mother. You are just his girlfriend. His mother comes first. And its not even that important to get vaccinated. So you are overreacting and you should be ashamed. What if it was your dad or mom? Pregnant or not if mine was still alive I would go to them in a heartbeat pregnant or not.

I’d be upset but maybe to ease your mind, I had covid in January & my husband & my 3 year old never got it & we all obviously live together & sleep together. My mother in law was at my house 3 times before I knew I had it & my father in law once & neither of them got it so fingers crossed he doesn’t catch it. (Just fyi, I was on day 6 when I tested positive which is the same day I lost my taste/smell. The first 5 days were nothing but nonstop sneezing so I really didn’t know or think I had covid so that is why I unfortunately exposed several people.)

Let’s look at the facts
He’s a momma’s boy, she’s a grown ass woman who didn’t get vaccinated, she can lay in the bed she made herself. And he can as well.
He is now not allowed with in the hospital and on the delivery floor since he physically put himself within the same room with someone with active covid. If you deliver on time, he is now missing the birth of his child, congratulations to him. And do t either of you dare lie and say he didn’t. Don’t put others at risk.
Your oldest child has asthma, and I’m assuming your partner knew this. This tells me that he doesn’t give a crap about your oldest or his health. Why would he risk your health, your unborns health and the health of a child with asthma? That’s selfish.
His mother could have gotten help from others. She could have ordered her needs from Shipt or instacart so she wouldn’t infect others. Even RX can be delivered via Shipt now.
There was no reason for him to risk everything, for his mother who is capable of taking care of herself, and if she can’t, she needs to be in ICU.
Taking care of her is fine. Going back and forth between your house and hers isn’t fine. He should stay with his mother for a while or get a hotel/air bnb. He needs to make sure he’s not risking getting you or your son sick.
Telling you that you’re annoying instead of listening to your fears is immature. You might want to reevaluate whether you want to keep this person in your life if he’s not going to listen to you and respect you.

I wouldn’t be mad he went but I wouldn’t let him come home until we both knew for sure he didn’t have it. I have a son with heart and lung disease so its not something we are willing to chance as I’m sure you’re not with your son. If mom was just sick but doing okay I can see why you’re upset what happens if you go into labor and he gives it to a one day old. I’m sorry you have every right to feel how you are.

Did he actually go into the house to give her the stuff he got or did he drop it off outside for her? He’s wearing a mask, did he use any disinfectant or sanitizers? To me it kinda depends on how old she is and how her health was prior to getting sick. If she’s still very capable and active I feel she doesn’t need help. But if she’s older and needs the help I think it’s kinda sweet- but I also think it’s kinda dumb knowing your about to give birth.
I can’t say I’d be upset cause like 85% or more of the people my boyfriend works with have had it and I’m pregnant too. I can’t control that. But also like, knowing how close you are to labor I feel like he should take any precaution he can to make sure you don’t get sick and that he doesn’t so he can be there with you when you have the baby.
I’d be pissed. Delta variant is more contagious than the others circulating now. And it’s becoming the dominant strain here in the US. So I’d tell him he needs to quarantine with her.

Is anyone here taking into consideration he’s now suddenly risking her not having a birthing partner at 39 WEEKS pregnant?!?
She doesn’t have time to wait around and see if he’s gonna test negative, she could pop any minute.
This means not only does she possibly not have a birthing partner but the baby doesn’t have its father there. That’s so sad for someone 39 weeks pregnant who thought all along it would be otherwise.

Wow some of you people are oh lovely. And i was the person to not qear a mask (im also an essential worker that works 6 3rd shifts a week and not vax. And never got it. Even after a customer came in and I handled his money and ect then he tells me he’s positive. No he wasn’t lying. He was a regular untill I banned him from my store. Ive never been sick.) I mean I’d be upset if he couldn’t be there in l&d because they may stop him from going up to l&d. But I mean its his mom. Wouldn’t you go to your parent or sibling if they needed you?

What an idiot… Tell him to stay his ass there
How selfish. That’s his mother! You would be the same mom complaining if your son didn’t come help you out later. If he wore a mask, washes his hands properly and changes clothes/showers once he is home he is perfectly fine to visit her and then come home to you lot. Some compassion and understanding goes a long way. That man just heard his mother was sick and like a good man would he went to help.

There are safeguards and precautions that he could take to keep himself healthy and also provide her w/ the care she will definitely need in this time. He sounds like a caring soul.
It’s his MOM. Jeez. What if she dies from it and it’s the last time he gets to see her. Who cares. He can quarantine and then come home when done. It’s a virus. It’s here forever. Just like every virus out there. Honestly, I wouldn’t care what you said. I’d do it anyway. It’s his mom. Get over it.

Hes not allowed to go in.
My mom had COVID, I did not go to her home to help her. My daughter and myself are compromised. My mom was in the COVID part of the hospital I had to make the decision whether or not to allow end of life care. She had hypoxia from severe oxygen loss. I then went into the COVID part of the hospital head gear, gown, double masked and gloves. My mom suffered several strokes, is now blind in 1 eye. Everything I wore I disposed of when I came home.
If his mom is battling COVID at home I personally would say have deliveries of what she needs delivered to her door. As you said you’re pregnant and most likely he can call his mom or video call to check on her. That’s what I did until my mom was hospitalized. I only went into the hospital because of the decision they asked me to make. If my mom was sick at home calls and deliveries of anything she might want or need is enough. You have to protect yourself and your unborn. I’d make him quarantine if he’s had personal contact with her. You’re not being selfish, if you’re compromised plus pregnant you have the responsibility to take care of yourself first. Not to be cold hearted towards his mother. But their are socially distant ways he can help her. If she needs more than that she should go in the er
