A. it's completely normal fever is the response of the body towards any kind of infection or any inflammatory process in body and only when the temperature is above 99F it is called as fever, so you can give paracetamol in a dose of 15 mg/kg/dose which can be again repeated after every 5 - 6 hours if required and do cold sponging of the body to reduce fever in between the doses.

A. hi it is normal. nothing to worry about it. please offer breastfeeding as and when it is required. burp your baby on your shoulder in upright position after each feeding.
