See your doctor: It is very important that you see your doctor for this kind of advice. Don't accept on-line answers when a pregnancy is involved. There is too much at stake.

See doctor!: Take tylenol (acetaminophen) to decrease your temperature, hydrate orally and see hour doctor asap! prolonged hyperthermia is a teratogen and high fever can increase the risk of miscarriage. Go to the emergency room now and best of luck.
