QUICK wwyd - would you leave sick kid...

in Washington Babies

DD is acting normal - she has a little cold but otherwise acting normal. She has low 99 fever though. AND this morning she threw up (though I think it was combo of just inhaling breakfast, being in a tight car seat and coughing - gag reflex) She says she feels fine and is acting fine and has been eating normal foods fine all day with no issue.

DH and I are supposed to go out with friends (We NEVER go out!!) in about an hour and starting to wonder if I am a bad mom for leaving her with a babysitter like this? DH isn't worried, just the mommy in me. We will be about 25-30 mins away so could leave and come home if she wasn't feeling good or wanted us...

WWYD? I have to make the call and let the babysitter know in the next half hour or so!

TIA!

    she is slightly not herself -more about having a little cold though - other than sounding stuffy, she is pretty darn normal  - normal appetite etc... ahhh mom-guilt - but I know you are right and she would be just fine. Thanks!

    I'd go, as long as the babysitter had been filled in on the situation and was totally fine with it!

    Go, have fun. Just give the babysitter a heads up. You can always come home if there is a serious issue.

    Thanks ladies! I feel better that you are all saying the same thing  -will definitely be checking in with sitter and making sure she feels comfortable calling me if she has any concern at all.

    Thanks!
