“I haven’t been able to be with her all day because I’m at work,” said the 34-year-old.

The Lizzie McGuire star went on to explain, “I love my job so much but this is just a little shout-out for working parents who have to leave their kids in times that don’t feel natural and goes against everything in your body to not be with them.”

The actress also confessed that at times, she felt weird for not looking after her child.

“I know I'm doing a good job in working hard for my family. But poor little baby! All of this feels so weird, to not be with her,” stated Hilary.

The Youngest alum also noted that none of her other kids suffered from the virus.

“Mae’s symptoms looks awful,” concluded the actress.
