    Question Fever at 6wks preg

    Hey everyone
    Just wondering if any mums out there had a virus with a fever at about the 6 week mark and ended up delivering a healthy child?
    I could really do with some reassurance. I dont know how high my temp got cos I was away with no thermometer, but the next night when I was home it got to 38.3.

    Thanks!

    I had an ear infection and head cold at 10 weeks. As you can see DD is 8 months old.

    My GP said I did the right thing going to see her, but take some panadol to reduce your fever and go and see your GP if you're worried.

    Thanks MummaSue
    Yeah I did see GP yesterday, and I took panadol quickly the second night, but I hadn't the first night cos I didnt know if it was a fever or not (I feel so stupid, should have taken it anyway)

    Hi Lozzy,

    I'm sorry that I have no advice but I just wanted to say congrats on being UTD again! If you don't remember, we were in the Nov BB group together. Best of luck for this pregnancy!

    I had fevers of 39 - 40 for 2 - 3 days when I was 6 weeks preg and DS2 is now 11 months old.

    Hope you feel better soon.

    I had an awful fever (chills, cold-sweats, crazy-dreams etc.) early in my pregnancy with my now very healthy and robust DD. Hope it passes soon for you Hun and in the meanwhile, try not to stress yourself out too much. xox
