Work from home or office when pregnant?

Hi all I’m currently 16 weeks pregnant and was wondering if fellow pregnant ladies have requested to wfh throughout their pregnancy to minimise risk of Covid? My job allows me to wfh but since govt increased wfo quota to 75%, most of my colleagues have been back in office. Is this a reasonable request? So far have your bosses agreed to it? Thanks!

I'm now 31 weeks, work in office all the time, only when I had covid then my employer asked me to wfh for about a week after 5 days MC ended. If you're worried about catching COVID at office, I would suggest you to have your meal alone. Although this doesn't guarantee you won't get COVID at all as I actually caught it from my husband at home haha. At that time, he was mostly wfh but still actively played badminton and occasionally met friends outside.
