Flu and pregnancy

[Jenny252]

Hi, I'm expecting and I have flu. I've had it for about 2 weeks now. Been to the doctors twice and been prescribed cocodomol for severe headache and a nasal spray. I'm just wondering if anyone else has had flu during pregnancy?

I did years ago. It seemed for about 3 weeks and I couldn't take anything except paracetamol. I remember I used to inhale steam over a bowl as well which helped temporarily.
There seems to be nothing much you can do. My immune system seemed to be zero when I was pregnant. Hope you feel better soon
