Body Temperature Overheating Concern
Hi everyone. My concern and question is this. I am aware that a sustained high temperature during pregnancy can cause some degree of brain damage, thus the reason you can not use electric blankets etc. If I am correct in this my concern is 1. If you have too many blankets on at night (and sleep like the dead like I do and not wake up to take them off), can this raise your temperature significantly enough to cause damage? If you are really overheated?
I am quiet panicked because of this as I also had the flu at about week 8 and am concerned that I may have had a temperature then and possibly something may have gone wrong.
I just had my 13 week ultrasound but obviously although things appear ok, you can't look into the brain.
Does anyone know of any information or personal experience that they can give me some peace of mind?
