I was due on the 25 go back to the dr Monday to set up induction....in the mean time I have been given a fever that won't go away along with a horrible cough and cold...the baby is so low that every time I cough I think The baby is going to fall out...worst timing ever...my husbands been great but still not enough everything is just so aggregating
Re: Support needed
Drink lots of tea and keep breathing! Here's hoping you'll recover in time for the labor. If it's any consolation I was worried about having the flu because my husband had it last week and I somehow managed to dodge it *knocks on wood*.
I was reading up on stories of other women who gave birth while sick, and one woman said the coughing helped with the pushing, so there's a silver lining. The coughing might also help labor go off without an induction, so there's that too.
Good luck!

Hope you feel better soon!
