My mom came down first, then my wife and I got sick. Now our baby is sick. So far our son seems fine.

Honestly kind of freaking out, I'm a hypochondriac anyway but this one hits extra hard because my step dad died of Covid last year. I went to a clinic and got tested, the nurse practitioner didn't feel the need to put me on any meds because my only comorbidity is obesity.

This is day 2 or 3. Knock on wood I've been much sicker in my life, but I sure don't feel great. Congestion, headache, fatigue, some mild nausea that has mostly passed. No fever so far. My wife is about the same, but our daughter (13 months old) is running a consistent fever.

Just honestly in a bit of a panic. I feel a little lost. We've avoided it this long and now it's just... here. Really afraid of losing someone else or going my self.

Stay hydrated and if anyone starts having breathing issues go straight to the ER. I’m sure everything will be fine but I understand. My husband had it and he was fine but I was a nervous wreck.

Thanks for the advice. We bought a pulse oximeter to monitor our O2 saturation and I bought a couple of cases of water, some Vitamin D, Vitamin C, etc.

I found out yesterday I have it. So far my son and husband don’t but it’s been more like a cold so I haven’t freaked out to much. The coughing is driving me crazy!
