Occupational hazard coming home and affecting family? (C.diff)

[Nurse_Sprite]

I am a long-term care nurse. For the past approx. 3 weeks, I've taken care of a patient with C. diff. So my question is this....Has anyone unknowingly brought home C.diff spores and have a family member come down with a C.diff infection? I ask because last week my 1 year-old daughter finished a course of antibiotic for an ear infection and since Monday she has had numerous green, mucous-like, and watery stools. Just yesterday, her stools started to have the C.diff smell and has virtually no appetite. I am taking her to her pediatrician in the morning to rule out the possibility, but I am scared I unknowingly gave her c.diff!!
