That's what scares me my now 12 year old had RSV and spent 2 weeks in the hospital when he was only 2 weeks old. So after that, we've done our best to keep visitors away from the new babies. His aunt even insists that since I got the flu shot it will be okay for people to visit. But even the CDC has said there are strains of flu going around that the shot may not protect from. But just because I got it doesn't 100% protect my baby. I guess I'll just have to be down right rude to get them to understand because being nice isn't working.
How long a period of time are you talking about? Days?
Or longer than that?
You are totally right. Just keep telling them it's not to be mean, but you need your rest & don't want to get the flu. That happened with me when I had my first & no one listened to me & she ended up in the hospital at 9 days old. She's fine, that was 5 yrs ago but still, just do whatever makes you comfortable. :)
