I'm almost 34 weeks pregnant, due end of April. I start maternity leave on 20th April but I should be able to work from home for the remainder of my pregnancy, holding meetings via Skype etc.
However my husband is self employed and his job involves being around lots of people. The business is going to struggle as it is with lots of cancellations due to coronavirus, so he can't simply stop working. He also runs the business with his dad, who has a heart condition, so is going to be taking on significantly less work to reduce his risk of catching the virus, meaning more work for my husband. What do I do? I can stay at home, and obviously he will wash his hands thoroughly to reduce risk, but surely if he gets it I'll get it?
I wasn't worried initially as the advice seems to be that the virus isn't particularly harmful to pregnant women, however the recent story of a baby infected either in utero or during birth has really worried me. I had two miscarriages before this baby and so scared of losing this one. Also worried about what happens when she's here - do we ban visitors?!
Any advice?
