I just found out I am pregnant about 2 weeks ago. This morning I have woke up to a headache and a swollen lymph gland behind my right earlobe. Should I worry? I do have a bad tooth on my upper right but its not hurting. Also my ear feels cojested on my right. What should I do at this point and is this going to effect my little embryo? Thanks

 Hi Hebber,
It sounds like you are developing a cold. Many viruses can cause congestion and lymph node swelling. It is very unlikely that this is dangerous to your baby. You should let your obstetrician know about any illnesses that you have during your pregnancy, though.
Best wishes.
