I do not feel all that bad. Very very tired but at 7weeks I assume that is normal. I didn't take my temp until now and of course the office is closed. Should I be worried at 99.6? Thanks.
Nope! Technically that isn't even a fever- needs to get above 100.1. Your temp would have to be about 103 to be a cause for concern. Also, normal body temperature is elevated in pregnancy.
no, don't waste a moment worrying about a low grade fever. If you have a fever of 101 or above, call dial-a-nurse or something to describe your symptoms. Congrats on your new baby!
I would not be concerned unless it goes higher, I have heard that fever can be harmful in early pregnancy but I think it is 102 or higher that you need to be concerned. You can also take tylenol to try to lower it, but if you are not feeling that bad then I would say just rest and keep an eye on it.
Not at all! That is a low-grade fever and something that could go down in a matter of minutes! If it gets above 101 then you need to worry.
No don't worry. A pregnant womans temp is slightly higher than when you aren't pregnant.
I had some GI bug during my pregnancy.. I called the dr. and they told me the baby was safe in my tummy.. but to keep the fever down with tylenol.
You might want to check with the dr.. but I believe they do not want preg folks to have a high fever.
