You tell your man he'd better take days to wrangle the kids while you recouperate. Not enough people take the necessary time to rest and heal when they SHOULD and therefore never fully get back to themselves. If he bitches just tell him, 5-7 days now and then you're just as good as new or 2 days now and you take the next three months to get to your old self if not more!!!!
You really should listen to the doc and shut yourself down for at least 10 days hun. With viral infections you need to do that.
