The Centers SU for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that pregnant women are at greater risk of potentially fatal complications swine influenza. Six U.S. thirty-four pregnant women with confirmed swine flu contracted pneumonia and died. These women were healthy before getting the flu. Compared with the general population of pregnant women is four times the risk of contracting influenza.

Undoubtedly, pregnant women will the target of an experimental vaccination campaign and the CDC recommend the aggressive use of antiviral drugs. Many women are reluctant to take risks to her unborn child. The CDC considers that the risks to them outweigh the risks to the child. This will be a difficult decision for many pregnant women.

This is because pregnancy is a risk because the mother's immune system is under-expressed during this period to not reject the fetus. This need to decrease immune function also reduces the anti-viral activity.

The situation is complicated by metabolic problems during pregnancy, such as increased blood glucose, pressure higher blood or toxemia – all driven by leptin problems of irregular function. These problems create energy inefficiency that prevents even immunity. Stress or simply doing too much too soon help energy inefficiency.

All women should practice good hygiene, avoid situations that may come contact with sick people and, as a priority to maintain a good energy level.

Your immune system needs energy to function properly and certainly capable of it during pregnancy. The combination of pregnancy and the fatigue is what differentiates a person with problems.
