Pregnancy is in the middle stage around 14 weeks. At this time, expectant mothers need to be especially careful as they may have fever problems. If the fever recurs, they should go to the hospital for treatment in time. During the fever period, even without medication, the fever will have a significant impact on the baby in the belly, so it is recommended that everyone pay attention to it. What to do if a pregnant woman has a low-grade fever Methods/Steps 1. Find out the cause of the fever and take into account nutrition and rest. In addition to finding out the cause of the fever, it is necessary for pregnant women to reduce the fever moderately. Fever often increases the mother's metabolic rate and is accompanied by many uncomfortable symptoms such as headache, loss of appetite, general fatigue, palpitations, and even dehydration, which increase the burden on the pregnant woman's cardiopulmonary function. Therefore, you should choose moderate fever reduction. Generally speaking, if the pregnant woman's body temperature is not higher than 38.5 degrees Celsius and there are no obvious discomfort symptoms, you can consider using physical methods to help reduce the fever, such as: ice pillow, heat dissipation patch, warm water wiping, such as wiping the body repeatedly with a warm towel, placing ice packs in the armpits, forehead and groin, etc. 2. Use of antipyretics: Try not to use them. As for when to consider using drugs, it varies from person to person. However, if the body temperature is above 38.5 degrees Celsius and accompanied by uncomfortable symptoms, you can consider using drugs under the guidance of a doctor, otherwise it will harm the fetus. 3. It must be reiterated that the pathogen that causes fever itself is more harmful to the mother and fetus than the fever itself. Therefore, when a pregnant woman has a fever, it is important to find out the cause of the fever and prescribe the right medicine, which is more important than simply reducing the fever. |
