I'm also isolating with my covid-positive pregnant wife, and you have to remember theres a 99.9% chance any illness either of you gets, the other does too. It's simply unreasonable for you to know that you'd need to move out of your house when your contagious but before symptoms really kick off. That 99.9% goes up to 100% if you have a kid who just spreads germs 24/7 like us too
Edit: re caring for her, just make tea with honey and lemon and try to let her relax, not much you can do
You got this OP..me and my SO are expecting and went through exact same last week but we sailed through and you will too. Don’t kill your self with the guilt
Treat the symptoms like you would any other illness. Before giving her any meds check with her doctor. Tylenol should be okay for controlling her fever.
One bonus is that the baby will get some of the mothers immunity, so there will be less risk once they are born.
Don’t get stressed, give her Tylenol, protein rich food, lots of water and ask her to relax.
Call the OBGYN and make sure to talk to them.
The baby will get immunity from her.
Thank you all! Just really disheartened with the news. Doing my best to care for her. I appreciate your support!
Not your fault so def keep that out of the equation. Stay super in tune with how she is feeling though. Proactively talk to doc about how/when she should be seen since pregnant women are at pretty significantly higher risk. Help her not minimize how she feels. I think that’s the best place you can really help.
Firstly, no need to blame yourself. You didn’t do it on purpose. To care for her, be supportive, tolerate her mood swings, and keep telling her that everything will be fine. Hopefully, both of you will get back to normal pretty soon. Take care, and congratulations on becoming a father.
Thank you all. She's being supportive and positive but just praying for her fever to break. I truly appreciate all your kindness.
We had same situation in 9th month of pregnancy. Wife and me both had covid despite taking full care and this was pick covid time last year and none of us were vaccinated. We recovered in week , wife could feel baby was little under stress but nothing happened. Baby was born healthy and she is growing faster
Thank you for sharing and congratulations on the baby girl!!!
