I've been tracking my basal body temperature and noticed it's a bit higher than usual. I'm curious, what is the typical body temperature in early pregnancy?
Honestly, I felt like a human heater in my first trimester! My husband had to turn the AC down while I was sweating. Just make sure it's not an actual fever, otherwise, get used to feeling a bit warm!
Your body is working hard to create a new life, so it naturally becomes a little warmer. Keep your thoughts positive, drink water, and pray. If you feel too hot or sick, please check with your doctor for safety.
A slight elevation in body temperature is very normal in early pregnancy due to hormonal changes. However, if your temperature goes above 100°F, that's a fever and you must consult your gynac immediately for safe medication.
In the early weeks, your body temperature rises slightly due to progesterone, making you feel warm. My MIL thought it was a normal fever and suggested some herbal teas, but I consulted my doctor first to be absolutely sure.
Yes, your basal body temperature (BBT) stays slightly elevated after ovulation when you get pregnant. My tracking app showed a slight rise of about 0.5 to 1 degree. It's completely normal as long as it's not a high fever.
