The point I was making (and it is one also made during a PM briefing) is that the virus has only been in the human population for 4 months or so - so no woman has come to term having suffered the virus in the first or most of the second trimester - which is when some viruses, of which Zika is a prime example, may do most damage. There is as I understood it, again from the PMs briefing, no evidence of any Covid-19 related issues with pregnancy, the warnings are on the precautionary principle that it's still too early to be sure. Certainly there is a lot of evidence that the impact of Covid-19 on children seems mild, and may frequently be symptomless. I was not advocating anything but care, I was trying to reassure the OPs that they shouldn't be massively over concerned - a very different position if they had been over 70 and with existing pre-conditions.
