According to the New York Post, the woman only identified as Maggie posted her experience on Facebook and said she discovered she tested positive for COVID-19 after a check-up. Maggie was 28 weeks on Mother’s Day when she learned about her diagnosis. She says, “As a mom, you want to control, but right now, you have to accept that you don’t have control of everything. The Woman’s Hospital of Texas wrote in an Instagram post that she was given five coronavirus tests during her stay at the hospital. Maggie also has a five-year-old son and was deeply concerned about his and her husband’s health.
Maggie learned on June 4 as she was recovering from the virus that one of her son’s umbilical cord was wrapped around his neck and she would have a C-section. Her husband was not allowed in the delivery room because he also tested positive for the virus so her mother accompanied her during the delivery.
