Covid and 36+3 weeks

[LeeanneD11]

Hi

So currently pregnant with baby number 3, woke up this morning with a headache and feel sick and weak, haven't slept all night , did a test but not sure if postive as can't really tell lol 😂

Has anyone had covid while being pregnant in 3rd trimester,

What did you do?

How did you cope?

Do you need to tell anyone

I'm more worried about my baby than me xx

@LeeanneD11 I had covid last week at 32 weeks pregnant, I have to say it really knocked me off my feet and even now 11 days later I’m still not 100%.

I rang the maternity unit at my hospital and they said all you can do is take paracetamol if you have a fever, keep an eye on things as you normally would in terms of baby etc , rest and keep hydrated, there’s not much more you can do.

hope you don’t feel too bad with it 🙂

I did at 35 weeks. I had a growth scan as had reduced movements, but all fine with me & baby.

Felt a bit rubbish but if I hadn't tested would have thought just a cold. I was vaccinated in second trimester though, so I'm sure that helped.

Hope you don't feel too rubbish!
