So BIL and SIL brought their 2 kids (2 and 7m) down for the weekend to go to the zoo, they stayed from Friday-Sun  The 2yo was playing in DS's room w/everyone Sunday (ds too) They left about 2pm on Sunday.  As soon as they left DS threw up everywhere and has not really stopped.  He has a fever.  I told DH to call them and let them know that DS is sick.  He said there is no need too, they probably got him sick.  My SIL was so sick she couldn't even talk, both kids had terrible runny noses.  Her comment is, I'm not taking them to the doc, because nothing can be done anyhow.  (they've been sick for 2 weeks)  DH says they probably gave DS something.  Even though they didn't give us the courtesy of letting us know they were all sick, I think it is only fair to tell them that DS is puking.  WWYD?

I would let them know.  I know if it was me and my child, I would want to know, if nothing more than a heads up so I could watch out for anything unusual.

Did you know that her children were sick before they came down? If not, that is pretty crappy of her to still come.

Isn't there an incubation period before you start showing signs of having caught a sickness from someone else? He may not have caught it from them.

I would let her know either way.

I'm kind of confused - they were sick before they came to your house, right? But runny nose sick? And what was wrong with your SIL that she couldn't talk? If none of them were throwing up sick, then it's doubtful that they got your DS sick. So in that case, yes, it would be nice of you to let them know.

It seems kind of quick for him to have gotten it from them, doesn't it?  I probably would let her know, just so she can know what she's up against if anything happens.

I know he didn't get it from them.  DH is really pissed that their kids have been sick for 2 weeks, still came and didn't let us know.  SIL is so congested she lost her voice.  I am going to send her an e-mail.

I don't think it would be contagious if they'd been sick for two weeks.  Unless they had fevers.  I would let her know that your DS has been throwing up.  I'd like to know.  Hope your DS feels better soon!
