Description

In December she discussed her dislike for dating apps on her show, saying, 'It makes me feel like such a loser. And you're like you know what? It's just hard out there, it's hard out there for everybody. It's hard in person, it's hard on dating apps, it's vulnerable.'

However, she wasn't dismayed by her lack os success, stating: 'You keep trying, and you fill your life up with so much that it becomes secondary...I think a cherry on top to my life at some convenient, cool, inspiring, unexpected time might be in there - but that's all it is.'

Impacts of COVID-19 on the pregnant person and their baby mostly center on delivery, as women with COVID-19 are more likely to give birth preterm or experience a stillbirth than women who don't have COVID-19. 

'My kids' dad is happily remarried with the most wonderful woman in the world, Allie. My children have this extraordinary stepmom. And our processes have been different, and their side of the street is so functional, and whole, and happening. And I think I've been on the sidelines in a beautiful honoring purgatory,' she said.

'I just feel he is being unreasonable and there will be lots of other opportunities to do his sport. He should just stay and look after kids as agreed. He is having a big old sulk and thinks I am being overprotective.'

'My husband decided yesterday that weather was perfect for him to do his sport tonight. We don't have any local family or regular babysitter and without consulting me he has asked neighbours' daughter (in early 20s) to babysit our children (3 & 5). 

'Not only do I feel uncomfortable dumping young children with a stranger for bedtime when they would usually expect stories and cuddles with us. But there are also all the activities of bath time when I just feel it needs someone with a bit more experience to do this safely.

Can I pass COVID to my baby during pregnancy? The ACOG says that there are some reports of COVID-19 being passed to a baby because their parent was sick during pregnancy, but these reports are rare. 

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.

No matter what formula you use, you should always follow the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's instructions for proper preparation, handling and storage. This includes washing your hands before preparing formula, and using prepared formula within one hour from when feeding starts.

'Then on this thread you have a husband you have a husband who has taken the initiative and sorted out a perfectly reasonable childcare solution and posters are saying he has been underhand and should have consulted his wife!'

"We can provide treatment for COVID-19 in pregnancy," Dr. Jeanne Sheffield, a maternal-fetal medicine expert at Johns Hopkins University, said in a post. "Several of the medications currently in use are also being used for our pregnant women, and early studies have shown they can provide some benefit."

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. 

'I am sure this girl is lovely but we hardly know her, she has never met our kids and to my knowledge has very little experience of young children. She would need to put them to bed because children would be home from afterschool club just before we both need to leave at 6pm.

Meanwhile, others suggested the father was being unfairly criticised after he came up with a solution to the childare problem, and said that people would be outraged if the mother was the one being told she had to stay at home and look after the children.

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. 

'Plus you will be distracted at your work do, worrying. I would say yes, meet this girl, have her round to tea one day with the kids so that you can see if she can babysit in the future. But not tonight. Don't let your husband's sulks stop you from protecting your kids,' one wrote.
