Running a mild fever since last night and feeling so weak. Im 7 months and a little worried about the baby. Trying home things like cold patti for now and will call my doc, but how do u all manage fever safely?
Oh god, I remember when I got a slight fever and totally freaked out! My doctor told me to rest, drink lots of fluids, and a lukewarm sponge bath helps a lot. If it was persistent or high, then a paracetamol (PCM) was allowed, but ONLY after checking with him. So don't panic, just call your doc.
Oh, a fever is never fun, especially when pregnant! My doc always told me to take a lukewarm bath and drink plenty of fluids. For medicine, he said only paracetamol if absolutely necessary and only after a quick call to him. My little one is a toddler now, and I remember how scary those times felt. It'll be okay, just check with your doc.
Having a fever in pregnancy is not something to take lightly, especially if it's high or persistent. I had some complications, so I learned to be extra cautious. My doctor always advised to contact him right away if I had a fever. Please call your gynac to rule out any infection.
Any fever during pregnancy should be reported to your gynac immediately. Seriously. Don't try to manage it completely on your own with home remedies only. They will tell you what is safe to take or if you need to come in for a check-up. Your doctor's advice is paramount.
Beti, if you have a fever, first take rest and drink lots of warm water. You can try a 'patti' (cold compress) on your forehead. But if the fever doesn't go down or is very high, you must immediately call your doctor. Don't delay on this, it's important for you and the baby.
Controlling fever in pregnancy primarily involves rest, adequate hydration, and lukewarm sponge baths. If the fever is high or persistent, your doctor might recommend paracetamol, as it's generally considered safe. However, never self-medicate without consulting your obstetrician, as they need to determine the cause and appropriate treatment for you.
Heyy, if you have a fever, first thing is to not stress too much! Just take it easy, drink lots of water, and try a cool damp cloth on your head. But seriously, call your gynac ASAP. They'll tell you if you can take PCM or if you need to come in. Don't guess with fever, ya know?
Fever during pregnancy needs to be taken seriously, especially if it's high. I had thyroid issues so I was extra careful. Don't self-medicate beyond simple things. Definitely call your gynac or doc right away to get proper advice, they might need to check you for underlying infections too.
Fever can be quite worrying, I know. When I was pregnant, my gynac advised resting, staying hydrated, and lukewarm sponge baths. She also said if it goes above a certain temp, then paracetamol (PCM) is generally safe, but only after speaking to her first. So call your doctor, they will guide you best.
Hello ji, I am just planning for pregnancy, so not much experience. But I think for fever, specially when you are expecting, you should always ask your doctor first. They will tell you what medicine is safe. Please take care of yourself.
