Flu late in 3rd trimester
I'll be 37 weeks tomorrow. Came down with flu on Sunday at 36W2D. I went to the doctor on Tuesday. Baby was at 128 bpm and they gave me penicillin antibiotic and paracetamol for fever and told me to monitor baby's movements. He is very active. Moving around 6 to 10 times per hour and some hours only 3 times. The meds aren't helping yet and I feel feverish and tired all the time + sweat all throuh the night. Baby seems fine but I just feel like this is far enough for me and my body needs meds that will actually help. I want my baby out now while my flu hasn't caused him harm yet and then I also read that you can still be contagious 4 days after symptoms fade. Has anyone been through this and got any advice for me?
