I'm sorry to add another thread to the same topic, I know that there are multiple people far more vulnerable than my situation, but I need to let out some of my anxietiesSad

I'm 18 weeks pregnant with my first baby, and my partner is type 1 diabetic. I'm terrified, mainly for him, and how poorly he could get. if I had the virus and passed it onto him I'd never forgive myself. He's more worried about me and the baby but I know I'd be fine and so would she as it can't be passed from mother to baby (that they know of).

I'm scared he could get the virus, it could hospitalise him and I wouldn't be able to see him because I'm high risk in pregnancy and would have to stay away. Every tickle I feel in my throat or chest just sends my mind spinning and I just feel so down about it all.

I'm scared it will still be around when babies born and I won't be able to have a birthing partner or visitors for months. I don't know what I'm hoping to achieve from this thread, I'm just feeling really overwhelmed by everything and just want life to go back to how it was Sad
