Abstract

COVID-19 increases the risk of preterm delivery in Nordic women requiring intensive care but has not been linked to foetal death. We present two cases of mild COVID-19 in pregnant women admitted due to reduced foetal movements. The babies were delivered preterm due to abnormal cardiotocography values. The first baby developed atypical respiratory distress, and the second baby was stillborn. Placenta and amnion tests from both patients were positive for SARS-CoV-2 variant B.1.617.2. These cases emphasise cautious follow-up of pregnant patients admitted with COVID-19, regardless of severity, as it may affect the foetus.
