Protect against the Zika Virus. Causes birth defects

Sid • Wed, Jan 20 • 🌺 First baby!!! It's a girl 💃🏽 Miracles do happen!!!! PCOS since age 16.. But I was able to conceive naturally 🙏🏽

I urge you to use repellant and be careful. There is a virus called Zika which is spread by a type of mosquito. This virus causes severe birth defects if contracted during pregnancy. It's mostly in Africa, Latin America and warmer climates. They have found two cases in Miami of people that travelled to Colombia and Venezuela past December.

Below is the link from the USA CDC with more info.
