Has anyone had covid / the flu since being pregnant? I’m pretty sure I’ve got one or the other & really worrying it will cause a miscarriage. Google didn’t help either 🤦♀️🙃

I had Covid during my first pregnancy around a month before I was due and baby was fine, just make sure you rest up and don’t overdo it or do anything to increase your heart rate too much! Any concerns id contact the doctor for advice x

There is no evidence to suggest it causes miscarriage. Make sure you get lots of rest, look after yourself ❤️

I'm getting over a viral infection as well. I was down with a fever this past weekend.

Looking back, I had covid right around the time of implantation and I'm convinced that's the reason I actually managed to fall pregnant because my overall body temperature was higher. Implantation failure was a probable reason for my previous early miscarriages, so covid is the only thing that was different this time around. My fertility consultant said that they've cared for many mums who have had covid during pregnancy and they are yet to come across any issues with babies. My sister in law also had covid during her pregnancy with my niece and she's absolutely perfect :) Hope this helps x
Thank you everyone 😊
