37 weeks and DD has the flu! UPDATE
I took DD to the dr on Friday and she tested positive for the flu and she has the croup too. I am 37 weeks and now I have a cough and can't get an appt with my doc. Should I try one of those walk in places? I know there probably isn't too much they can do for me but now I want to be tested for the flu. Your thoughts?
ETA: I was able to get in to see my doc this morning and I also tested positive for the flu. He did not want to give me the Tamiflu because it is a "Level C" drug for pregnancies and since my symptoms were not that severe right now, he said to rest, drink lots of fluids and I can take Robitussin for my cough. Just finished dousing every surface in my house with Lysol. I hope this doesn't last too long.

If its still early enough they can give you Tamiflu. I would try to get to a walk in place if possible bc it has to be started within 48 hours of having symptoms. Feel better!

Def go to a walk in place. My husband got the flu 4 days before I was to be induced. Just disinfect everything, wash all yours and dd sheets. Be very good about hand washing. You will be ok!
