PCR came back (emailed result) tonight positive, no surprise. I've been symptom free since yesterday, and Tuesday was really OK too but achy sometimes. And Monday wasn't bad. Sunday wasn't great, and a good afternoon nap helped.
If I count Saturday night when my throat began to feel funny that's 3 days max of sickness. Maybe a 4th if I count residual aches and occasional cough on Tuesday. For me this came and left quickly (Sat night was chills and little sleep) and Sunday/Mon was mild fever with Tuesday/Wed some interesting coughs. My sister's experience was the same.
My son had a more persistent cough. It came later for my wife and daughter (Tuesday tested positive with rapid tests, neg the day before) and it hit them harder, with sinus and coughing issues. I'm not surprised they got sick. There was really nowhere for my son and I to isolate in this tiny house although we did try on Monday/Tuesday. But, it's been 2 days for them and they're already much better than yesterday.
My dad has reported OK, meanwhile. He's 86.
Glad to hear the good news for your family.
