You are allowed to go up to 100.4 when pregnant. Sounds like you might be suffering from either bad allergies (I have em) or a cold. Hydrate and take some a half dose of Regulate strength Tylenol. Maybe give your OB a call during the day to ask if you are ok to wait or if they have other suggestions.

Sorry you feel so sick! Just keep an eyes on your temp you can safely go to 100.4 before you need to bring it down.
