I wouldn't worry about it. I've had the flu three times during this pregnancy and my doctor says baby is absolutely healthy. Just went for a check up today.

No the baby will fine if u do get sick. It will help the baby when the baby is born to help fight off or not as bad of a cold so don't worry to much. To much stress isn't good for the baby

Common cold won't hurt baby, the main risk is from high fevers (102° or more) just make sure not to take any medicine without running it by your doctor if you do get sick.
