If you are that concerned you should go see your doctor or midwife and explain obviously that you havent had the flu jab and have been poorly for a while. I was really bad it had me in bed for 3 days and i still dont feel better, now its just a irratatong cough. Hope you get well soon. Im 33 weeks also ☺

I didn't get the flu shot or anything to prevent it. But this is bad I just want to feel better I'm 33 weeks and me and my husband have to move by the end of this month so I need to start feeling better!

Baby is completely fine. It would only be the severity of the illness that coukd cause problems for the baby but even then it would have to be really bad. I have had a cold now for 3/4 weeks even though i have had my flu jab. I just hope i dont have it still when i go into labour.

I believe baby is well protected. But did you have a flu jab?  I had mine and it's great! I still get colds, but symptoms are very mild and don't last long :)
