Coronavirus and pregnancy

[RainMinusBow]

I'm concerned as I'm an older mum-to-be, almost 29 weeks pregnant and hoping there won't be a midwife shortage when I'm due. Also a ft primary teacher having to work until at least 38 weeks.

Planning on a home birth...

That sounds absolutely horrific @fool11 - it must feel really scary now after a difficult experience before. At least I have no expectations given it's my first!

Does anyone know the current rules with partners dropping off extra items like clothes? I have no idea how long I'll be in for, so just deciding whether I need to pack for a few days or bring everything I could need in the worst case I'm in for a week or two!
