Is a persistent fever of 102?F during early pregnancy a serious concern if it does not respond to paracetamol (Crocin) and the complete blood count (CBC) is normal?
A persistent fever of 102?F during early pregnancy does require prompt medical attention, especially if it is not responding to paracetamol (Crocin). Even with a normal complete blood count, a high body temperature itself can affect your baby's early development. I gently advise you to contact your obstetrician right away for a proper evaluation. In the meantime, try to stay well-hydrated by drinking water and use cool, damp cloths on your forehead to help lower your temperature safely.
