So my country is in Lockdown and I am 8 and a half months pregnant, my due date is a week after lockdown ends so hoping it doesn't get extended or that I go into early labour. Can't wait until baby is born hasn't been a very pleasant pregnancy. Who of you on myLot are in lockdown? And who of you are also having to deal with pregnancy while in lockdown?

@JohnRoberts that's one of the things we are worried about, is that he won't be allowed to be there for the delivery as they are very strict at the hospitals at the moment. So just hoping he will be able to be there.

@amitkokiladitya I have high blood pressure so they will be inducing me at 38 weeks - not looking forward to that. Unfortunately hasn't been the best of pregnancies as I have have morning sickness 24/7 the whole time.

@louievill thank you. I heard of a few babies born during lockdown so hoping mine is not one of them.
