I have I had it when I was about 11 weeks. Was really unwell had a temperature and couldn't get out of bed as everything hurt. I called the none emergency midwife number they just said drink plenty, take painkillers and rest. They said if I had trouble breathing or started having bleeding with bad pains to go to a&e. I was really worried as I felt so awful and was in pain but I then had my scan after I was better and everything was fine. Try not to worry if you do feel something may not be right call your midwife number talking about it can sometimes help. Just get lots of rest hope you feel better soon

I currently have covid and I'm about 16 and a half weeks pregnant now. First day I felt awful with vomiting, headaches etc, but the last few days have just been like a heavy cold. Been trying to stay hydrated, especially in this heat! Lots of cold water and I've been on lucozade sport too. The hospital has prescribed me 10 days of blood thinning injections. I think it depends on your NHS trust but mine do this as standard for anyone pregnant with covid. Your blood gets stickier during pregnancy and having covid can further increase the risk of blood clots. Worth getting further advice from your midwife if you are worried 😊

Had it at 13 weeks, and was so worried for the baby, but it passed quickly and I decided not to do the blood thinners after some chat with my GP.
