Will my baby be ok whilst I'm unwell?

28.2 weeks pregnant. Came down with a cold on Saturday but quickly turned into chills, temp, sweating, body aches, coughing, sneezing, basically bed bound.
I have a cough still but temp has now gone, still really bunged up though and feel lethargic.

I'm worried about my baby, will she be ok?

I had flu, proper bed bound wanted to die flu, my baby was fine.

Your baby is fine.
It doesn’t hurt and it might speed up your recovery to take a multi vitamin, make sure it includes vit D, C and zinc.
hope you feel better soon

I just can't help all the coughing mustn't be good for the baby, it's constant!

Hope I start feeling better soon

I had a horrendous chest infection whilst pregnant with DC1 and all was fine, at your late stage in pregnancy your little bubba is stronger than you think!

Take good care of yourself and get lots of rest and fluids, you'll both be fine I'm sure Smile

Hope you're feeling better soon OP Flowers xx

I just had covid while pregnant and the GP and midwife reassured me that baby will be fine :) the babies take priority in our bodies so even though we might feel terrible they are fine! drink loads of fluids and take paracetamol if you need to!
