Tomorrow is my due date & I have just tested positive for covid. I’ve been full of cold on & off for 2 weeks now. I hadnt thought much of it & wouldn’t ordinarily have tested, but these last couple of days I noticed I literally can’t taste or smell anything. I’ve informed my midwife & tomorrow will receive a “covid pack” including blood thinning injections & (I think she said) BP monitor etc.
Has anyone given birth recently whilst testing positive for covid? I’m petrified my husband tests positive & can’t be with me (he’s not showing any symptoms yet) for the birth. I should have asked the midwife I spoke to earlier but I was too upset. Not had the easiest pregnancy so this just feels like the cherry on top.
