Baby and covid

[Confusedmum32]

My 3.5month old has just tested positive to covid. I'm stressing out big time. Has anyone's bub had covid and how did the react to it? I'm so scared....

Sorry @Confusedmum32 no experience myself but I have read and also from friends young children testing positive it came across as a bad cold.
Sorry I don't have more to offer. Sending happy thoughts 😊

Thank you, any information is greatly appreciated 🙏

My DD had covid when she was 6 months. It was like she had a bad cold. She got over it way quicker than her dad did, we had 2 bad days and then she was back to being a happy but snotty and coughy 6 month old. I was terrified myself but calpol and cuddles worked for us xx

Hi @Confusedmum32 - I know this is an old thread now but how did you get on? My DD is less than 2 weeks old and was exposed to a relative 3 days ago who tested positive after we had spent the morning with them. I’m now stressing out in case one of us or DD tests positive in the next 10 days. Would appreciate any insight as to how your LO handled it?

@HappyHolidays22 she was absolutely fine. He milk intake wasn't so great for about 3 days and had a snotty nose but apart from that she was fine. I was actually sicker than what she was. Day 2 and 3 were the worst and by day 4 she was back to her normal self

Thanks @Confusedmum32 so pleased she was better so quickly! It gives me comfort :)
