Don't be scared: You can stop worrying. It is very unlikely that the baby will suffer any ill effects.

NO problem: Treat your cold and do not worry about the baby. if you are breathing well enough the baby will be ok. This is assuming you have enough oxygen for yourself. Ask your doctor what to treat your cold with but as long as you are not short of breath, you are ok. Best wishes.
