Fever during third trimester

2025-01-03 06:16:34
I'm 33 weeks pregnant. I recently attended a family function and now I have a fever. I'm not on medication. I am doing home remedies like steam inhalation. So the recovery process is slow. I guess it's a viral fever. Will such fever during this time affect my baby?
