Experience of covid in pregnancy?

I've got a cold no cough fever etc
However I have sent a covid test off just to be sure as I have very little taste or smell (from the cold)
But it got me thinking I'm 30 weeks pregnant and been in once for reduced movements already
What happens if there is a problem what is the protocol for getting treated, my anxiety is high now as I'm worried any treatment would be delayed due to covid?
Fingers crossed it's nothing and my negative test will be back soon but I'm worried Sad

@99redspottedducksI had covid at 28w. There is no treatment, paracetamol and bed rest really.

If you have any worries you can always call the midwife unit and they will tell you if you need to come in for any checks. Otherwise they have plenty experience with mothers being positive, and they are well prepared for any issues.

Get a lot of rest, fluids, sleep, go easy and always call them if in doubt. Good luck :)

Thank you I just wanted to make sure if I had reduced movements again or anything they would still get me in quickly and they wouldn't delay incase of a positive covid test result
I'm sure they wouldn't but it's just another hurdle isn't it and being pregnant is hard enough
Won't be getting pregnant in a pandemic again Grin
