Flu

Hi all - I’m 19wks pregnant and have the flu. Thank goodness I got the flu shot because I couldn’t imagine how bad it would have been if I didn’t. I had a fever off and on for two days. I took Tylenol round every 6 hours to keep my temperature down. I’m worried about having a fever for 2 days. Guess I’m just coming here for some reassurance? I did call my midwife to told about home treatment and what to do if my fever didn’t go down, etc.

    Oof yeah I had that this year too! Got super sick and lost like 4 lbs because I felt so sick I didn’t want to eat.  I also just focused on taking tylenol right when I could and staying hydrated. It was at around 17w maybe? Baby looked good at the anatomy scan so it looks like there were no adverse effects! You will get through this- it just absolutely sucks when all you can really take it Tylenol and you feel miserable 😕

    Not exactly the same, but in my first pregnancy I had COVID right as I found out I was pregnant (4-5 weeks) and had a high fever for 3-4 days. That's when the neural tube is forming so I was worried about the fact that I had a fever during that time, but everything was totally fine. My healthy 21 month is running circles around me right now😂

    Just gone done with Flu A. Called my doctor and they said all should be ok and gave me a list of things I could take. Had 103.4 fever at one point. Everything seems fine though.
