Does Tylenol Affect Baby During Pregnancy?
I just found out I m pregnant, est. 5 weeks, and have not seen a doctor yet. I started running 102.3 fever Monday night and had flu symptoms that started all within a few hours ( sore throat, congestion, severe headache, bad body aches, ear aches, and pain in my neck. Fever went down next two days with Tylenol and have stayed between 100.3-101.6. I did not find out I was pregnant until 3 days after the symptoms started and have been sick now for 5 days. Do I need to see a doctor? Is this going to harm the baby? What should I do?

HI,
I understand your concern.
Telnelol is not harmful in pregnancy, so don't have any problem t your pregnancy due to the drug,
But what I am worried about is high grade fever you had & possibility of viral fever affecting the baby... That's why you should rush to a gynecologist doctor & get some protective medicines for pregnancy.. if your doctor thinks it needful.
Be careful for getting fetal abnormality detecting USG , that is routinely done at 5th month.
Thanks.
