My good friend told me two weeks ago that her 8 yr old has pinworms. She and her family had to get treated b/c they are very contagious. She also has a newborn like me and my son who is 7 plays with her 8 yr old. I know pinworms arent deadly and can be treated. She told me that she got treated with antibiotics 10 days ago and had to stop breastfeeding. She has been coming over now alot with her family and everytime she comes over, I get so scared that my family will catch it, especially my 7 yr old and my two week old. I know she got treated but i read that they are contagious and can continue to come back later on . My boyfriend isnt taking a great approach to this and stated that "pinworms are common among dirty people or filth". this also upset me b/c they are nice people and arent dirty. So now he doesnt like them coming over or coming close to the baby. What should I do? I love my friend and her family but im also so scared of them giving it to us. I want to tell her how i feel but i dont want to hurt her feelings. I know she and her family took the medication for 10 days but im still scared. What would you do?
