What are the symptoms and complications of COVID-19 for pregnant women and their babies?
Currently, most patients with Covid are in mild form and can recover after about 7-10 days of care. However, complications caused by Covid-19 are still a matter of concern, especially for pregnant women. They are very sensitive subjects and will suffer many health-related effects.
Things F0 pregnant women need to know during the treatment and post-Covid-19 period
According to BSCKI Tong Thi Van, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Hong Ngoc General Hospital, the symptoms of Covid-19 in pregnant women are the same as other normal people such as fever, cough, shortness of breath, muscle aches, back fatigue or chest pain. However, in cases of pregnant women, the immune system is reduced. Therefore, when a pregnant mother has Covid-19, it is easy to have favorable conditions that make the disease worse.
Talking about Covid-19 complications for pregnant women, Dr. Van said: “In the first and second trimesters of pregnancy, there is no evidence to confirm that it will affect the fetus because survey data in the world is very limited, but it can cause miscarriage, premature birth, fetal distress… These are some of the complications that, if not detected in time, can affect both mother and baby.
In addition, in fact, there is no evidence in the placenta, umbilical cord, amniotic fluid containing SARS-CoV-2 virus. Many babies born to mothers with Covid-19 do not get Covid-19 when the baby is examined.”
