How to deal with low fever in pregnant women

Nothing matters too much during pregnancy. When mothers become pregnant, it is not only related to themselves, but also to the baby in their belly. As a pregnant woman, it is actually not easy at all during pregnancy. Usually, pregnant women have problems with size and movement. Pregnant mothers are also worried about it, for fear that it will affect the baby in their belly. What should I do if I catch a cold or fever during pregnancy? Will it affect the baby in the pregnant woman's belly?

The body temperature of an expectant mother will be slightly higher than that of an ordinary person by 0.5℃. When the body temperature rises above 37.5℃, it is necessary to consider the possibility of a fever. At this time, fever in pregnant women must be regarded as a common pregnancy problem and must be handled carefully. Because of the special period of pregnancy, taking medicine for fever will have great negative effects on yourself and the fetus. If the fever of pregnant women is not serious, physical fever reduction can be performed.

Generally speaking, a pregnant woman with a high fever has a very fast heartbeat, and the heart rate of the fetus also accelerates, which will have an adverse effect on the fetus. High fever can also stimulate the uterus, causing uterine contractions, leading to premature birth or miscarriage, and may also cause fetal death. The problem should be analyzed and solved in depth based on the detailed situation of the pregnant woman, such as cold symptoms, physical fitness, gestational age, and the natural environment. If a pregnant woman has complications such as heart disease, emphysema, etc., a fever or cold will aggravate the original condition. Relatives and medical personnel are required to pay close attention to pregnant women and take effective treatment as soon as possible.

Pregnant women must take medicine under the guidance of a doctor and must not take medicine without authorization. Because it is not only related to the drug itself, but also to the course of pregnancy. Generally speaking, fever in pregnant women can be treated with acetaminophen. Each dose of acetaminophen can last for 6 hours, which means it can be taken 4 times within 24 hours. Ibuprofen granules, Bupleurum injection, etc. can be used. Indomethacin is a fever-reducing drug that pregnant women should avoid taking, and aspirin is also not suitable for use after 32 weeks of pregnancy. There have been reports emphasizing that diclofenac sodium-type drugs can cause the ductus arteriosus of the fetus' heart to close prematurely.
