My IL's came over tonight for dinner to keep me company because DH is out of town. FIL says he's not going to go near the kids because he has a mystery rash on his face. I was like, "um, shingles?" to which he replied, "maybe - I'm not sure."
Seriously, who comes over if you think you might have shingles around a 3month old?!? There was plenty of opportunity to call first. I sent them home. These are the same ones who just won't get the pertussis vaccine. My husband is going to step in and say something the next time talks to them.

Re: WTF IL rant
Woah.
I mean....
I got nothing.
good for you for sending them home! i don't know if i would have been able to without dh being there (we have our own issues with the ils). hopefully he is able to talk some sense into them.
that is just plain rude. we had a kid at our christening with a fever. not fair to that kid or anyone at the party. i just don't understand why people think they should expose others to their germs unless its 100% unavoidable. boo!
Oh, Mir that sucks! Were they upset that you sent them home?
Even if you didn't have kids (and a new baby) I would expect someone would call and say I think I might have shingles are you ok with me coming over, because I wouldn't want to hang out with someone with shingles at all. I had them, I would NEVER want them again.
I try to avoid sick people at all costs but even more so now that I have a kid.
Yes, SD! Isn't she just gohhhhrgeous?!? And congrats to you!
That is crazy. I nearly lost my mind when a cw came into work with shingles while I was pregnant. I was terrified because there wasn't anythiing I could do. I had to be at work. She got reamed out for knowingly coming in with them, which made me feel better.
Kudos to you for tossing them out on their heinies.
She is!
shingles bleh. burn them! burn them!
