What Are The Causes Of Chills And Night Sweats?
Hi, I am just over 6 weeks pregnant and have been feeling nauseous for the past 5 days, as well as the usual sore breasts. Last night I had a headache before I went to bed but then woke in the night shaking with chills and sweating. Today I feel cold all the time even though I have 2 sweaters and a duvet on me (mainly my upper body). I do tend to feel the cold but should I be worried? I am 39, weigh 57kg. Had an early scan last Friday and there was a heartbeat, CRL 1.7mm.
