Have just had my bloods back from GP which have shown that I have the parvovirus. I was ill this weekend and had a blood test booked already on the Monday just gone and I got my results this afternoon. I am 10+4 weeks pregnant after suffering a miscarriage last November.
I am so scared !!! I now am at risk of miscarriage which as you can imagine I was worried about anyway and now at risk of something happening to the baby.
Has anybody on here been in the same boat and gone on to have a healthy pregnancy and baby ? Is the risk of miscarriage reduced if you are being monitored ? Hardly anything on Google about the illness !!!
Any comforting thoughts welcome xx

I could not read and run. If i remember it is a water disease ? I hope that everything turns out ok for you. Look after yourself . x

Thanks Homeaway. It is the Slap cheek virus which seems to be rife at the moment ! It is just so frustrating not to be able to find any proper info on it regarding pregnant women.

Can you contact your midwife and ask her for advice ? I dont know if it is possible but maybe you could book a private gyne appointment to get some answers. A scan would tell you if everything is ok.

Will contact Midwife today and see what she has to say. Looks like it is quite rare then as not much response Sad
