How many people have experienced a cold and got a positive? When did the cold start and finish.
Before anyone starts I know it's cold season just curious of how many people have had this

I am struggling to get my head around this one OP

A positive what? Pregnant test? Covid test?

Your OP doesn't make much sense

There's been a few threads about this recently, quite a few people have said they've been ill with cold/flu during ovulation/TWW and managed to conceive, so it is definitely possible! Best of luck ☺️

Yes I have had colds:felt rubbish before positives
The idea is your body's immune system is weaker to allow for the implantation and not fight it as a 'foreign body'

Not sure what you mean but having a cold was my first symptom of my pregnancy. I never get colds and this one won’t budge still 2 weeks later, still sniffly. I’ve had bloods etc I’m all okay. But your body is more run down when pregnant

I’m on immune-suppressive meds to help
me conceive, to stop my immune system attacking the embryo and causing miscarriages. So it is a thing. The uterus is actually part of the immune system and has its own type of immune cells.
