Pregnant, Sore Throat, Red. Should I Go To See The Doctor?
I am currently 15 weeks pregnant. My children had a horrible cough , and runny noses as well as a fever of about 102 most of the week. Now I seem to have caught it. Last night I was coughing at least every 15 min, and it continued through the night and day. My throat has become sore and when I looked at it tonight it is very red and veiny looking, should I be going to see the doc, or is it likely just irritated?
