Question

Mild fever during 6 weeks pregnancy

Answer 1

i have been in and out of the hospital for what i conciderd the "mild feaver" during the first 3 months of my pregnancy.but according to the doctors and the hospital i didnt have a feaver. you just have to sweat it out. they dont count 99 somthing as a problem unless it goes to 101.0. you have nothing to worrie about. sorry to tell you that, i hated hearing it, i kept telling them i know my body and i know when somethings wrong. but in all reality they were always right and i just had to keep on the BRAT diet... Banannas Rice Apples and Toast, and drink alot of fluids and they told me to take 2 extra strength tyanole...i cant spell. good luck and feel better

Answer 2

When I went to the doctor during this pregnancy I had what i believed was a fever as well it was 99-100..the doctors reassured me that it wasnt a fever at 99-100 but 101 would be considered a fever which then u should get checked out...right now u are ok..take some tylenol for the fever and drink lots of water...

Answer 3

when it comes to a pregnancy, better safe than sorry i've always thought. since you have a mild fever (normally they say anything over 100 is need for concern, dont want your body temp getting too high for the lil one!!!!). i know that my doctors office had a number to call where you can talk to the on call doctor to ask any questions that you need (some it is just the office number if you dont know of one... then someone will answer and assist ya). are there other symptoms??? call the number and ask, if the doctor is at all concerned they will let ya know, and can tell you to make any plans accordingly.

Answer 4

Hi,
My daughter had similiar at 7 weeks pregnant, doctor said, done the right thing coming to see them, as it could be an ectopic pregnancy. Certainly see doctor if you have any pain in lower stomach. Otherwise if you still have it, then ring local hospital and ask A&E staff. They are usually very helpful or try NHS Direct, again very helpful. A web site www.patient.uk is also informative.
Hope that helps.

Answer 5

99 degrees is not really considered a fever by most people. Do you have any other symptoms? I'd recommend calling the doctor (or nurse advice line, if you have one) and asking.

Answer 6

i might p.c.. up some necessities and adequate foodstuff for 2 weeks, then head for some desert area, like the Smokey Mountains, and camp out in the wooded area. i might commune with nature, and while my time grew to become into up, i might stretch out in the grass, or on the pine needles decrease than a tree, and circulate to sleep listening to the sounds of birds and the creatures of the wild.

Answer 7

They say that if your temperature goes over a 100F you should go and see a doctor but you are a border case i would still go and see a doctor better safe then sorry =)

Answer 8

It is normal for you temp to go up when you are pregnant. You are probably fine I wouldn't worry yourself, sometimes this can be worse then being sick. If your temp goes to 100 or higher then you want to worry.

Answer 9

Answer 10

You should take Tylenol to bring it down and also TELL YOUR DOCTOR!!
