Im running a slight fever since last night and im 16 weeks. Bit scared to take anything on my own so will call my gynac in morning, but meanwhile what do u all do at home to feel better? pls share.
Please dont ignore fever, especially if its high or not coming down. I had a fever in my 7th month and my doctor wanted to check immediately to rule out infection. Cold sponging on forehead can give some relief till u reach the doc, but pls call her.
Beta for mild warmth, rest properly and drink lots of water, nariyal pani also good. But agar bukhar tez ho to ghar ke nuskhe mat karo, seedha doctor ko dikhao. Pregnancy mein risk nahi lena.
Fever in pregnancy you should never try to manage on your own yaar. Call ur gynac and ask, dont take any random tablet from medical shop. For both my pregnancies doc told me what was safe, thats the only thing I took.
When I had fever my gynac said paracetamol is the one usually considered safe but ONLY at the dose she prescribed, and she still wanted to find the cause. So basically dont self medicate, the fever itself is a signal of something. Hydrate and rest meanwhile.
Honestly easiest thing is just phone ur gynac clinic, they usually tell u over call what to do and whether to come in. Meanwhile rest, sip warm water, keep urself cool. Dont wait it out hoping it goes.
