WWYD - new baby arriving and my toddler...

i have a section scheduled on the 20th. DD goes to a drop-off babysitting class 2 times a week (kind of like pre-nursery school) and brings home all sorts of germs on a regular basis (we takes turns being sick).

the last 2 weeks have been fine (no colds), but to be safe should i not send her next week? i'd hate to give birth sick and then expose the little one to anything i've got.

am i over thinking this or should i "play it safe" and not send DD#1 next week?

this is all given that i don't go early Chat Icon ...

I would just go with your regular routine. There are germs everywhere all the time. I understand your hesitation but I would just take extra special care to make sure that DD's hands are washed as soon as she gets home from school. I mean, your family can't live in a bubble for a week, right?

ITA. Plus routine is going to be key for your toddler with such a big change about to occur in her life.
