Pregnant - Visiting friend who has cough and her toddler just had to go to the hospital with fever and rash [BC]

So my OB is closed and I’m trying not to be a total panic case but I met up with a friend for the long weekend who is also pregnant - she has a wicked cough (ugh wish she told me before hand!) and just found out her toddler had a rash yesterday and today had to go to the hospital with fever and rash.

She left her son yesterday and doesn’t have a fever or rash but should I not be concerned she could be contagious before showing symptoms? Her toddler isn’t on the trip with us. Should I cut my losses and end the trip early to be safe?

I have a miracle pregnancy (19 weeks) after lost of IVF and this is likely my last shot at adding a sibling to our family.

What is the guidelines for pasteurized stracciatella (semi soft cheese) in pregnancy? [BC]

I did a quick google before ordering a stracciatella tomato sandwich at a reputable restaurant and it said as long as it was pasteurized it would Be safe. Confirmed it was pasteurized. Now a quickly look at the Canada.ca guidelines it says to avoid semi soft cheese even if pasturized.

I’m so frustrated with myself - Why did I even chance it? But I did a search and what I thought was a reputable source said it was fine! Which one is it? What have you been advised? I’ll Probably avoid going forward for peace of mind…

Debating between these two units - the Narwal is almost half the price which is a big win for us.

Will only be used on one level with mostly hardwood floors and two area rugs. Have a large, long hair shedding dog and a toddler.

Will be buying from Costco.

Is the Roborock really worth the additional $350 + taxes?
