pregnant with flu like symptoms Posted: 07-13-08 05:48am
So I never get sick! I've never had the
flu ... and now that I am 40 weeks
pregnant I've gotten sick! OF ALL TIMES?!?
I woke up this morning with a sore swollen
throat its difficult to breath this isn't
pregnancy related right? Or just bad luck!
Me being sick couldn't harm the baby
right? My main worry is being sick whilst
in labour(not having enough energy to
push). Will the baby catch my cold ... coz
colds/flu usually take a couple of days to
get over and I am getting induced in 10
days.

Pregnancy makes you more prawn to viral
infections utis tooth infections etc
flu,cold
As your immune system is down that little
bit get it checked out theyl probably tell
you ned rest and my midwife told me with
my flu you can take honey and lemon drinks
and pure paracetamol to help with it
