One little point to bear in mind is that flu can leave you feeling totally wiped out. I had the ordinary seasonal flu once and was literally too weak to reach out for a glass of water despite being insanely thirsty. If you do end up with flu, it might be worth thinking about the kind of support you would need to help you at home with a baby. |
And I second thinking about additional help. I had flu while pregnant a few years ago, and I couldn't eat or drink anything for several days. I knew the weekend was approaching, so I actually called my Midwife and asked what I should do, since everything I was drinking was coming back out. They rx'd anti-puking meds but I was still drained.
