My household has the lurgy going around.

DH at work with a chest infection

I feel run down, rough with a sore throat. My temperature is 38.6. As i feel fine does it matter? If i just rest take a paracetamol ect will that do? Or do i need to call my midwife to check? I am 25 weeks.

When I had a fever the midwife said that it's important to get it down and recommended paracetamol. But I think i would call them to make sure, hope you're feeling better soon

Thank you :) i called them, they said that if i start to feel really unwell/fever doesnt go down to call GP.

I have taken paracetamol and its now down to 37.7.

Just as you did OP, paracetamol and then the GP if no improvement.

I hope you all feel better soon
