SICK

[dcdiva]

Anyone else sick gotten sick early in pregnancy? I am about 5 weeks 3 days and I caught something nasty and am running a slight fever, have runny then stuffy nose, sore throat, coughing, itchy eyes ect. I think it is a combination of having a cold and allergies. I broke down and took some tylenol to try and reduce the fever as Tylenol is about the only thing you can take. Should I be worried? Do you think this cold/virus will affect the pregnancy?

I'm sorry you're so sick... one of my friends got very sick early on in her pregnancy..and to top it off she also got a sinus infection plus allergies! She was in such pain that she took tylenol and sudafed too. Her baby is in perfect health and she's due any day now. She said her doc said tylenol and sudafed were ok.
Hope you feel better soon.
