Description:A pregnant woman who gets flu has a greater chance for serious problems for her unborn baby and herself. Healthy pregnant women have had severe illness from the 2009 H1N1 flu. Compared with people in general, pregnant women with 2009 H1N1 flu are more likely to be admitted to hospitals. Several pregnant women have died. For this reason, CDC advises doctors to give antiviral medicines (Tamiflu® or Relenza®) that treat H1N1 flu to pregnant women who have signs and symptoms of flu.
