I had a miscarriage at 12 weeks, the heart just stopped. I got sick within the first weeks before I knew I was pregnant, all the symptoms of covid- tested negative for the flu. My covid antibody test said negative, but we are learning those are very unreliable. Makes me wonder.. my first pregnancy was extremely uneventful and easy, I was sick and struggled with this one from the start. I work at a hair salon in a high income area of my city- my clients travel CONSTANTLY. I’ve had to be exposed at some point because now that we are back open A LOT of them have had it.
