Crap. Who has had a fever in pregnancy?

Shit, shit. Who has had a fever recently? What did your OB/midwife want you to do?

We think BIL had influenza while he was here. I thought we escaped, but Owen just woke up with a fever or 101.7 and mine is 101.3.

I've taken Tylenol, anything else I should be doing? I'll call my midwife in the morning, but I am seriously stressed. This is not helping my PgAL and preemie mom brain.

Re: Crap. Who has had a fever in pregnancy?

  • Oh no! Tylenol and lots if fluids and rest is probably the right thing to do until you talk to doc. Haven't had a fever but do have a cold that turned into bronchitis. Every time I violently cough I feel like my water is going to break! (Pgal brain... Check.) Sorry I don't have much to add. Just hoping you feel better soon.

  • Oh no! Cesquer is right - fluids and rest. Maybe try a cool bath??? (That may be totally bad advice). Thinking positive thoughts for you!

  • I had one a few weeks ago. I *think* she said if it hits 102° to call or stays elevated for 48 hours on Tylenol then to call back. Lots of fluids and rest until you talk to your midwife. ((Hugs))

  • Lots of fluid and rest in addition to Tylenol. Try using some cool compresses on the back of your neck and forehead too.

    Sending you and Owen some positive thoughts that the fevers go down quickly!
  • Hope y'all feel better soon!
  • Oh no I hope you feel better!!! Yes Tylenol, lots of fluids and rest. So sorry you're sick. Take care of yourself and keep us posted!
  • Oh no, sorry you are getting sick. Lots of rest and fluids is a must! Hope you and Owen have a quick recovery. (Hugs) mama!
  • Oh no...sorry you guys are sick. Tylenol, lots of fluids, and rest. Hope you feel better soon!
  • Me! Influenza here... On day 4 of fever, chills, body aches, and coughing so hard I vomit. Call your OB for a Tamiflu Rx. Take Tylenol around the clock. And stay hydrated. Do you have someone to help with Owen? My only blessing is that this hit while home for Christmas so my mom and dad are caring for DS. I haven't gotten out of bed since Saturday,
  • You'll be just fine, just take in lots of fluids. I had a temp and didn't take anything for it and my sister had a 103.5 temp when she was 6 months pregnant. Both mom and baby are just fine. It's when you feel completely miserable that you should call your doc or go in.
  • I had a fever last week while sick. It hit 102.4, I took Tylenol and fluids (like everyone here said). The on call nurse just asked me to monitor it.

  • I did yesterday but it stayed below 101 so I didn't have to go in. Be prepared to sweat through your clothes and sheets when the fever breaks. I woke up soaking wet twice last night.

    The nurse at my ob said: Tylenol as directed, water, juice and a bland diet.

  • Last week, but it was a low grade fever. All I could do was drink tons of fluids and the occasional Tylenol. Hope you feel better soon.

  • I hope you and Owen feel better soon. Have you gotten ahold of your midwife yet?
  • Owen's fever got pretty high, so we went to urgent care. We both are on Tamiflu now. :(

  • I hope you both feel better soon!








     


  • I got flu and pneumonia at 6 months pregnant with fever of 103.5. I ended up in the hospital due to symptoms and I was worried about rapid rise of the fever. They gave me antibiotics and Tylenol. Hospital and my OB said not to worry, baby would be just fine.
  • @MrsLaurenandDan‌, I'm relieved you sought medical care and started Tamiflu. My fever broke today after 24 hours on Tamiflu. I hope you are able to rest and take care of yourself and both your little ones.
  • I hope you both feel better and recover soon!
