#GetVaccinated #GetProtected #pregnancy
Last month, I was a Covid-19 patient. Was not vaccinated as there was no approval of vaccine for pregnant women yet. Had severe symptoms and pregnant. Had to deliver my baby early (33-34 weeks) via CS coz stressed na siya sa tummy ko, been coughing nonstop and can't sleep. Thank God, my baby didn't have any complications pero nasa NICU siya. I was in isolation room after giving birth. Kailangan ko pa magpagaling sa Covid-19. Maraming meds ang binibigay every single day. Had severe pneumonia due to complication of Covid-19. But the Lord is so good, I am now recovering well from CS operation and mild pneumonia.
However, I still feel guilty of not being able to breastfeed my baby. I know I had to esp during this pandemic and need to boost his immune system. But as advised by my doctor, I need to take a lot of rest and boost my immune system too. Thinking about it, I still feel guilty but I know in my heart that my kids need a healthy me, not the perfect me.
