Fevers in 1st trimester?

Ariana

Hi all,

I'm currently 11 weeks, 2 days with my first child, and I'm really sick. I know your immune system is lowered during the first 15 weeks or so, and I also have an autoimmune disease.

My fever never gets over 100.4, and comes and goes, but my Dr.s office said to only go to the ER at 101. Otherwise they wouldn't do anything for me. I've been getting fevers/chills/cough/congestion since Wednesday afternoon. Covid test was negative.

I'm not sure how long I should deal with this before heading into an urgent care/ER, or calling the Dr.s office again? Any advice?
