A long list of health conditions (pregnancy and being postpartum are two of them) can increase someone's risk of severe COVID-19 disease, including hospitalization and death. If you're pregnant and also have a medical condition, such as diabetes, asthma or high blood pressure, your doctor may recommend additional treatment. 

Experts aren't entirely sure why pregnancy can raise a person's risk of developing severe COVID-19 disease, but there are a few ideas. Changes in the body that occur during pregnancy could increase someone's chances of becoming severely ill with a respiratory virus like COVID-19. It may also be because a person's immune system is naturally depressed during pregnancy in order to prevent their body from rejecting the growing fetus, Dr. Ella Speichinger, an OB-GYN at University of Missouri Health Care, told CNET in May.

COVID-19 treatments available and believed to be effective against the omicron variant include Paxlovid, some monoclonal antibody therapies and remdesivir. While not all treatments were directly studied for use in pregnant people, your doctor may recommend one if the benefits of treating COVID-19 outweigh the unknowns. 

He stated: 'Affluent people can give their kids everything they want, but they're not usually going to get what they need. Loving a child is a lot harder if you really give a d***. "No" takes a lot more energy. It's a lot easier to say "yes."'

Giving birth and breastfeeding with COVID: Can COVID pass through breast milk? According to the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecologists, you most likely won't need to change your birth plan if you test positive for COVID-19 before delivery, but talk with your OB-GYN or provider. Having COVID-19 also doesn't necessarily mean your doctor will recommend a c-section.

The risks of COVID-19 for both the parent and child may be reduced if the parent was vaccinated before or during their pregnancy, however, as seen in a growing number of studies on pregnancy, COVID-19 and the vaccines. 

It's normal to feel discouraged if you've done everything to prevent getting sick, but still test positive for COVID-19. Getting sick while pregnant, however, can cause a lot of extra stress and sometimes more serious problems -- even with viruses less serious than the one dragging on a global pandemic. So if you get COVID-19 while pregnant, what do you do?
