Is the presentation different in pregnant/postpartum women than non-pregnant individuals? COVID-19 presentation in pregnancy and postpartum Version 6: updated 27 April 2021 The common symptoms of COVID-19 in pregnancy and postpartum were cough (36%) and fever (36%). Breathlessness and muscle ache were reported in 19% and 17% of women with suspected or confirmed COVID-19, respectively. The common laboratory findings were lymphopaenia (33%), raised white cell count (28%), and raised C reactive protein levels (51%). Studies included pregnant or postpartum women admitted to the hospitals and not all pregnant women. The clinical manifestations of COVID-19 in pregnancy and postpartum appears to be broadly similar to the general population.
