So worried as have had complications with sub chorionic bleed, however the bleeding has stopped now.

Just to add a cherry on top I’ve gone and caught COVID.

Anyone else had is this early in pregnancy. Should I be worried.

I feel ok just woke up this morning aching all over and bit of a headache throughout the day.

So worried about what will come in the next week Confused

I caught covid at 12 weeks- I was absolutely.fine and have a health 10WO noe. Try not to worry as its safer to catch it in early pregnancy. I would let your MW know, as I then recieved daily calls from them to ensure I was doing Ok. Also contact your GP who will likely send you an oxygen monitor just to reassure you! Rest up, please take it easy and try not to worry!

@hellray I had Covid 2 weeks ago at 9 weeks, I wasn’t too ill with it tbf but did have a slight temp/fever one day.

I’m 11 weeks today and we went for a private scan and everything looked all good for now! I know we’re not 100% out of the woods (if ever) but it doesn’t seem (🙏) to have caused any probs for me. Just take paracetemol to keep your temp down, lots of rest and fluids and make sure you’re eating as much as poss to keep your energy up. Hope you feel better soon xx

Thank you for the responses @Cantgetausername87 and @CMcA21

Day 3 and it’s not as bad as what I thought it would be but this morning am feel so poorly.

Will call my doctor this morning as I think my temperature is high but took paracetamol and the cold weather is helping.

Thank you for the reassurance!

I had covid a couple of weeks ago at 10 weeks. Felt pretty bad for a few days, although lack of smell/taste did help with the nausea/sickness I've been having! It is probably worth telling your midwife, they prescribed me a 10 day course of blood thinning injections as precaution due to covid and pregnancy so may be worth checking. Since had dating scan and baby was absolutely fine

Bit further along but if reassures at all, I had covid at 17 weeks. It was very mild, my common colds are a lot worse! Baby was healthy and looking great at 20 week scan.

@Halftheworldaway132 aww glad it turned out ok for you.

I feel awful but the Husband has been so amazing with looking after me. Thank you all for the support and advice and It’s nice to have some reassurance.

I really think another lockdown is needed as I hardly go out because I’m pregnant and I’ve managed to catch it. Surely those who are really vulnerable are at risk now. I hope everyone on here stays safe this winter and Christmas.
