Pregnant and hfmd
Hi mummies, My child has gotten hfmd and I am currently 35 weeks pregnant. I am worried that I may have gotten it too. Would like to know if anyone has similar experiences of being pregnant and down with hfmd. Thank you in advance.

Hi mum, I can understand why you’re worried especially being 35 weeks pregnant and having HFMD at home is really stressful. If you’re not showing symptoms yet, just try to be extra strict with hygiene like frequent handwashing and avoiding sharing utensils because HFMD spreads very easily in the household. If you start getting fever, sore throat, or rashes, better go and see your doctor quickly since you’re in late pregnancy and they may want to monitor you more closely. Hopefully you manage to stay well and baby also stays protected.
