I was also super congested and could only breathe through my mouth. It was so gross. I took tylenol to keep my fever down, but not being able to breathe totally sucked. Hope your virus goes away soon!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bad-cold-with-fever-during-pregnancy#post-489502 Tue, 08 Jan 2013 17:17:50 +0000 Pepper 489502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks everyone! I'm still dealing with a minor fever today (99.2) but it only comes around once the Tylenol wears off. I've been drinking liquids like crazy and napping here and there. Cold season is the worrsst. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bad-cold-with-fever-during-pregnancy#post-488546 Tue, 08 Jan 2013 12:07:41 +0000 runsyellowlites 488546@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got a KILLER cold when I was 39 weeks that lasted 1 week &amp; took another week for me to feel normal again... definitely wasn't my favorite thinking I might be dealing with labor AND being sick. blegh!</p> <p>Rest up, stay hydrated, and definitely try the tepid bath for your temp. I actually had to alternate tylenol AND ibuprofen at one point b/c my temp wouldn't come down &amp; was rising. I hated it. Hope you feel better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bad-cold-with-fever-during-pregnancy#post-488537 Tue, 08 Jan 2013 12:05:17 +0000 tororojo 488537@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always have a cold during pregnancy...totally feel your pain. :( I hope you feel better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bad-cold-with-fever-during-pregnancy#post-487546 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 22:40:26 +0000 knittylady 487546@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh. Feel better soon. I've been sick twice so far and I'm only 18w. It definitely lasts longer, is easier to catch and sucks more due to no serious meds. I'd say just keep on the Tylenol (in the recc'd amounts of course) to keep fever in check. And fluids. I think thats the part they worry about the most. Again, feel better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bad-cold-with-fever-during-pregnancy#post-487514 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 22:24:47 +0000 MamaMoose 487514@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I ended up in the ER with the stomach flu at 15 weeks. Being sick while pregnant sucks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bad-cold-with-fever-during-pregnancy#post-487489 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 22:12:52 +0000 Smurfette 487489@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a cold after thanksgiving. Took two weeks to get over it since I couldn't take meds to make me sleep at night. At least I only broke down crying to DH once. I was miserable though.</p> <p>Hope you feel better soon!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bad-cold-with-fever-during-pregnancy#post-487386 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 21:25:11 +0000 blackbird 487386@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh no. Could you try a cool bath maybe? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bad-cold-with-fever-during-pregnancy#post-487173 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 20:00:56 +0000 Pepper 487173@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 14 weeks and I caught the virus my husband had a few days ago. Darn weakened immunity! I have a fever of 100.4. Per my OB's office, I'm drinking lots of fluids and I took Tylenol to bring it down. </p> <p>Anyone else get sick during pregnancy? It's the worst! I feel terrible. Hoping it's not disturbing the baby too much. :( </p>
