Well, she gets to stay home with you (or Michael) if she's genuinely sick, and if she gets genuinely sick at school you (or Michael) come and get her. If she wants more time with you, then perhaps if she says she's sick...
I don't think she's necessarily being deceptive -- I just think that she's bright enough to have figured out that being sick equals more parental time and attention, and to try and use that logic to get the attention that she wants because she is anxious about the big changes hanging over her head.
Do you think that perhaps she equates you going into labor/going to the hospital with you being "sick" and is worried about what might happen to you, and this is a way of expressing that concern as well?
