Two people in our colony have got dengue and im a little tense because im in my second trimester. The mosquitoes are everywhere these days. Just wondering how risky it really is for us pregnant ladies.
Dengue in pregnancy is something to take very seriously, please dont treat it at home. If you have high fever, body ache or any warning signs, go to the hospital immediately. It needs proper monitoring, both for you and the baby.
My doctor said dengue during pregnancy needs close monitoring of platelets and fluids, and they watch the baby too. Prevention is key, use mosquito nets and repellents safe for pregnancy. If you suspect it, get tested right away.
This is definitely a see the doctor immediately situation, not a home remedy one. High fever in pregnancy alone needs attention. Please dont delay if you suspect dengue.
