May 29, 2022 - Dada tested positive for Covid

Yesterday, Saturday, dada already kept on mentioning how his body aches so much. Later that afternoon, he was saying that his head would hurt each time he would cough--and he was coughing a lot. Our weekends (Friday and Saturday) were spent like a normal weekend with dada preparing our meals, taking over the kids for some time, although most of the time he would rest and sleep in the bedroom and on the couch. Sunday morning, he decided to take a home covid test and he tested positive there. He isolated himself (after having a quick meal) and stayed in the other room. Meanwhile, the kids and I just stayed in the bedroom, too. Camilla and I did the home testing and we both tested negative. Camilla last Saturday night had been coughing differently and it continued until Sunday. However, the test showed negative. I am currently having a scratchy/itchy throat, which is a well-known symptom a lot of people had mentioned prior to getting and really feeling the effect of Covid. Camilla and I would test again tomorrow. Mateo on the other hand, has been having the cough as well. He's been coughing for a while now, most likely he got it from his ate Camilla, but it just continued on. He has cough and minor colds so far. We don't know if he has Covid either, since we can't really test babies. But given the activities at home, I would say I wouldn't be surprised if he has it, although I pray that he doesn't because that is very scary to even think about...he's only 3 months old! Hopefully tomorrow we all get a bit better. Maybe I need to sleep early and really rest my body, too. I don't have any sub for the next few days.

I have prepared Mateo's milk for the night. It's 10:48pm, and his last feeding is supposed to be at 11:15pm. I am not sure if he would still be waking up around that time, but the milk is ready until 12:30am. He has been unable to sleep and nap today, which made it a bit hard for me, I had to carry him more. Again hopefully things get better tomorrow.

Alright, have to rest this itchy throat. Honey for the win!

Update the day after: May 30, 2022

Camilla and I tested positive for Covid. Covid became real. At the time where we really cannot get infected because of our little Mateo--I cannot.

So no more isolating for all of us, we just want to have at least one infected around Mateo instead of all three of us surrounding him. I was with him, dada was with Camilla for the most part. Ate Camilla was the strongest of us, thank you Lord she didn't have any of the mild symptoms even. She had cough and colds and a bit of phlegm, but none of the body aches, head aches or fatigue. Dada had it the whole Sunday a bit around Monday. I had it Monday and Tuesday. I was having chills most part of the day, it comes and goes. I would take Ibuprofen after 8 hours when I'm getting the chills or feeling the fatigue. Our poor baby, his temp was around 100 to 101 and looked like his body was aching. He's whimpering while I am rocking hime to sleep and while he's half asleep. He's got cough, colds, and phlegm as well. He finally got better around Tuesday when he was able to poop and vomit a bit of the phlegm. By Wednesday, June 1st, we're all just having cough and colds and a bit of a phlegm. Mateo still has phlegm but doesn't affect him too much, again thank you Lord! Camilla's temp was around 100 and got as high as 102, but we gave her Tylenol so her temp lowered down and didn't spike up again. We are still sick as I am writing this update. We are still technically in Day 3 so we are still contagious and still have the virus. Cleaning and disinfecting has started, and would continue for the coming days. Hopefully our kids get better the soonest. We can get through this!
