    Rosy cheeks, slight temp after a D&C

    As most of you will know my sister had a D&C yesterday - she has been quite well overnight but probably hasn't had enough fluids this morning. Her cheeks are rosy and her temp was 37.4 - she feels warm and we are in a cool room

    I am going to get panadol as there isn't any here and I have rung the hospital who have said to dose panadol, keep fluids up and check temperature in about an hour or so.

    Is there anything else we should be doing? I am making sure she is resting well - she isn't laying down but is seated and resting...

    Thanks for your help and advice

    Thanks BJ

    Update - took my DD & niece for the drive to get panadol and it wasn't a bad trip!

    Bonham is feeling much better after we got the fluids back into her... she is about to take temp and it is now 37.2 so the fluids must be doing something

    She is about to take the panadol now so we shall see how it is in an hour from now

    My thoughts are with her. Lots of rest and fluids should bring her temp down.
