Detailed Answer:
Welcome To HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney. I understand your concern.
I must tell you that your widal test is not suggestive of typhoid fever.
Widal test is a very non specific test. It represents the antibodies against Salmonella that causes typhoid and only rising titres are significant.
In your case,the titres are going down which is not possible in ongoing typhoid fever. As titres start coming to normal after 4-5 weeks of starting treatment.
Since you recently had a baby so most commonly fever in post partum period is due to Urinary Tract infection or Stitch line infection.
In my opinion you should get a Urine microscopy and culture done to rule out Urinary Tract infection.
Since you are already on antibiotics so your Urine examination might come out to be normal. In that case you would require to take Broad spectrum antibiotics like Nitrofurantoin.
I hope it helps.
If you have any fur query you may ask me.
Stay healthy.
