Hi Hells, You should have been referred to your midwife by now, so see if she can offer you some advice. Get well soon. Diane

Hi. Speak to your GP for reassurance

Lots of rest and keep hydrated 💖

I had it recently (just before I could get boosted) and agree it's horrendous. What symptoms do you have? I found paracetamol really effective for the fever. Deep breathing exercises (breath in, hold for five, exhale) and avoiding lying on your back help if you're feeling tight chested. Putting your head over a bowl of boiling water to inhale the steam is good if you have a cough. Rehydration sachets/ energy drinks seem to help all around.

Really hope you start feeling better soon!

Hi I tested positive yesterday too. I don't feel too bad but I'm stressing as I feel my covid symptoms have overtaken any pregnancy symptoms and now I'm stressing about miscarriage. I'm 10 weeks today. Did you find that? I've not had my booster yet. Jen

Aww no way. I hope you feel better soon!! And yes it is so worrying I’m 8 weeks 3 days I had my booster a few weeks ago and I feel as if I’ve been hit by a tank just rest loads and drink plenty of water!! Keep warm xxx
