If he goes to the doctor and they diagnose him with the flu, they should treat you too. My husband got it a few months back and they treated both of us because I’m pregnant as precaution even though I had already had a flu shot.

Wash you hands and hope for the best. It’s either that or isolate him to a room!

Collodial silver is a natural antibiotic that they sell in most health food stores like sprouts sometimes it’s particularly hard to find so ask an associate the help you find it I usually find it at the very bottom of the Shelf usually near holistic medicine

Yeah, hire someone to care for him and take care of yourself!!!

Flu shot and stay hydrated

Stay away from him! Your pregnant so it’s every man for himself

Throw the whole husband out and start fresh.

You most likely already have it… It can take 3 days to show up. Sip flat cola, nibble on crackers, call your Dr … I had the flu with my 2nd pregnancy and didnt find relief until I made a trip to see him

My family of 6 got the flu shot and 5 of us got it! The flu shot is garbage…

When my girls had the flu I was given tamiflu for “environmental exposure”. It’s safe for pregnant women to take, my best advice is get your husband to the DR to get a nose swab and if he tests positive, make a secondary appointment for yourself.

My daughter had the flu when I was pregnant I however ended up getting induced(on a Tuesday) the day after she was diagnosed and I ended up with symptoms the day I delivered (on a Thursday) and tested positive the day I was released ( on a Saturday) I delivered at 34 W so my baby had to stay in NICU so he wasn’t fully exposed to it

I’m amazed that you got a flu shot they say that’s its harmful to baby we’ll it is here in South Africa they don’t give a flu shot here to pregnant women

My partner had the flu and my ob doctor prescribed flu medicine for me just in case and I was fine

give hugs not kisses and don’t let him breathe in your face while sleeping

Go see the Dr and get tamiflu. Just be prepared if you have a weak stomach- tamiflu made me feel worse than morning sickness

Lysol,Lysol,Lysol everything, put him in a room, and stay away Lol, quarantine him…maybe call your doctor, they may give you something just in case

Keep things disinfected (anything you can really…door knobs, bathroom handles, counter tops). Keep ur hands clean. Give him fresh ginger boiled in water with a teaspoon of honey. (Peel the gingers and strain it of course). It will help his throat. Eat some fresh veggies and fruits. Keep ur diet clean and vitamin filled for at least a week or two. Open windows and air out the home. Change bedding every few days…all of it. Wash them in hot water. U can use scent free fabreeze on your couches and chairs or a Lysol disinfectant for material to disinfect the furniture. Call ur doc as well…ask them what is safe to take if symptoms show up.

Flu shot is garbage & sheds. So you actually probably gave it to him.

My advice is to wash your hands a lot and keep things sanitized. Maybe limit kissing as well. Just basic things can have a big impact.
