The juggling child care and getting rest is tricky. I wish we'd done shifts rather than both trying to do it at the same time.
Also from a total outsiders view, maybe try not taking temp and readings so much? Seems to be adding anxiety? That might be a total misread of the situation maybe they give comfort.

I think the results give comfort, though when it was climbing at 39.5 degrees and I was feeling particularly rough, I was starting to worry.
Daughter and wife’s positive results came back, fortunately daughter seems to only have the sniffles.
Now I’m monitoring the colour of my phlegm (got nothing better to do). Was a brown colour this morning, which is rather gross. Overall though, lungs feel fairly clear and cough feels fairly dry.
Thanks, I’ve been taking multiple readings on different fingers.
I try and avoid nasal decongestants unless it’s disrupting sleep as I find that drying out the sinuses gives me longer term issues.
Temp seems to be 37.3-37.5 at the moment which is a relief, but coughing feels like daggers.
It’s really difficult at the moment with both me and my wife sick, along with a 11 month old ans a 5 year old who both need constant attention.
No respite until at least another week.
