Is this dangerous, after researching around Google, I did not find an answer but I did find that being sick while pregnant, is bound to happen sometime during pregnancy, my fiancé has gotten the cold, she's 14weeks, she claims I worry too much

But is the baby exposed more to any dangers now that she is sick ?

Thanks

I had a cold close to this time during my pregnancy. The main concern would be a fever; if she has one, it is important to bring it down asap by either taking Tylenol or soaking in a cool bath. Other than that, she should take measures to stay hydrated and continue to eat as healthy as possible... and REST. This cold virus itself will not harm the baby. Good luck with everything!

***it's always best to call the doctor for their opinion though***
