Message: [QUOTE="GamecockFam, post: 5179482, member: 10934"] She also had the flu on the day she gave birth. I have similar thoughts but have kept my mouth closed so far due to today's match up against my team. I didn't want it to be perceived that I was making such statements out of personal bias. Technically she was out for approx 5 days, as I believe she started attending practice last Friday. Her baby is still developing it's immune system amongst other things, and I think the rule of thumb is to minimize contact for those first two months after birth as a protection measure. I'm not a pediatric nurse, nor am I a parent, but something about this doesn't sit right with me. But she is an adult who can make her own decisions, so I have to trust that she understands the consequences and is taking the appropriate actions to mitigate any risk to her or her child's health.
