Low fever, nothing else?

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
Has anyone else noticed their temperature being higher than normal during pregnancy? DH was sick a couple weeks ago, so I took my temp a few times-it was always about 99-99.9, but I never developed other symptoms. Yesterday and today it has been 99-100.4, but still no symptoms. I feel fine, no sore throat, achiness, or anything else that would make me think I'm sick. Baby is squirmy as ever! I just wondered if anyone else had the same thing? I want to avoid the dr.'s office so I don't catch something dreadful. I've heard/read a fever is bad, but everything says over 102, but since mine has never risen above 100, I figured I shouldn't take meds.

in pregnancy your progesterone levels SOAR! Like... crazy high especially towards the end. Progesterone does raise your body temperature so that very well could be the culprit. This is a good thing though... So I wouldn't worry unless the temp goes above 102 or other symptoms develop
