I am absolutely petrified.
I'm 30 weeks pregnant today, tested positive for Covid on Sunday, started with a headache then got to the point I couldn't move or breath. 111 sent an ambulance straight out at 5pm yesterday.
I'm now laid in a Covid ward, antibiotics, steroids, fluids, blood thinners. They have said they're 90% sure it's a blood clot on my lung but need to send me for a CT scan, which they refuse to do on pregnant women. However, they're sending me for one as a blood clot can be deadly to me and baby.
They have said they will more than likely have to get her out early. I also have an 18 month old girl at home.
I am so so scared.
Has anyone had any experience with this sort of thing? Or had a baby so early with a positive outcome?
