Unvaccinated mummies

How do you cope? 😥 I am currently 30 weeks along and unvaccinated. Hubby and I both agreed that I will go unvaccinated till birth but the number of unlinked cases now is very worrying. (and I'm someone who is rather chillax) My gynae isn't pushing for me to get vaccinated too. Hubby and I are home most of the time. We don't head out very much, not even for work. Only reasons to head out is for food, groceries or visiting both our families once a week for dinner. I am now seriously considering to cut off visits to our families as they are all vaccinated, hence the chances of them being asymptomatic is high. As much as my hubby and I exercise extreme precaution, we cannot control our families' daily activities and whom they meet. Is this too extreme? Ps. Please don't advise me to take vaccine as this will not be my plan unless gynae gives the green light. EDIT: Thank you all mummies for responding to my rant. I really feel so much better after knowing that some of you have also stopped visiting families, which means my request is not ridiculous. 🥲 Stay safe you all! ❤

Nope, I totally understand how you feel. I think we just need to make it clear to our families and seek their understanding. After all, we are just trying to protect baby and ourselves. We are staying with my folks now and they are frontliners. Even my hubby is vaccinated. I am rather stressed up since the recent increase in cases in the community. But I just try to wash hands more often and I hardly even leave home. If I do, I shower once I reached home. Praying that we will be safe! I’m currently 31 weeks and unvaccinated. Planning to do it after confinement.

Yes, my hubby still goes to work and out go. Sometimes I feel uncomfortable with him going out, especially if it is just meeting friends. But later, I just told myself he also needs a breather. Just got him to shower immediately when he gets home.
