Like I already mentioned yesterday, Swine Flu is disastrous for pregnant women. The main reason for this is the fact that the flu symptoms get aggravated if you are pregnant and leads to complications like
* pneumonia,
* fetal distress,
* flu-related deaths,
* miscarriage, and
* premature birth.
Since there are no vaccines for swine flu, you have to take the anti-viral medicines prescribed by the doctor. These medicines are yet to be tested about how safe they are for pregnant women. Still, if you have swine flu, contact your doctor immediately and do pop in those pills he/she mentions. The benefit from these swine flu medications definitely outweighs the potential life-threats from swine flu.
In fact, pregnant women who have been in close contact with people who have suspected, probable, or confirmed cases of swine influenza A (H1N1) must receive antiviral drugs as a preventive measure, according to the CDC.
