Thank you for your response. What about if we are swimming and I have on a one piece bathing suit with shorts. If I am holding my daughter on my hip, is it possible for the virus to be in my bathing suit and transmitted that way? Since I started having this fear, I’ve found lots of moms with the same fears. There is even a forum online where several parents swear that transmission is possible and did occur with their children. I know you get lots of messages on this forum about the same fears. I just don’t understand why it’s even an issue if it’s not possible through swimming, bathing, or other normal household contact. I’ve started being very OCD about everything and I feel like I am a walking virus around people. What type of counseling should I seek to help me?
