If I get sick during pregnancy will it harm my baby?

Question

My sister had a cold and didn’t tell me and now my throat hurts and I have a slight cough . I’m 15weeks 5 days pregnant

Answer

It’s more annoying than anything as you can’t take anything! Feel better soon

Answer

No it’s fine! That’s really annoying she didn’t tell you!

Answer

I just got over being sick at 16/17 weeks and I’m now almost 19, and had my anatomy scan yesterday and baby is fine!

Answer

I have been sick more times than I can count this pregnancy, nothing wrong with my baby.

Answer

I got Covid and bronchitis within a month of each other and baby is looking good. If you get a fever, make sure to keep that down. Reach out to your OB if anything.

Answer

Only real worry is fevers as high temps can harm a fetus (hence why we are advised against hot tubs and long hot baths). If you develop a fever just call your doctor and see what you can do to manage it!
