POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy8 months agoA. It's quite common for babies to experience a mild fever after vaccination as part of the body's natural immune response. Since your 2.5-month-old baby has a fever of 100.5°F after her vaccination, you can continue to monitor her temperature. You can give her fever-reducing medication like paracetamol (as prescribed by your pediatrician) in appropriate doses for her age and weight. Ensure she's staying hydrated, offering her small amounts of milk or formula frequently. Keep her in a cool, comfortable environment and dress her in light clothing to avoid overheating. If the fever persists for more than 24 hours, or if she becomes very fussy, lethargic, has difficulty breathing, or shows other signs of distress, it’s important to contact your pediatrician for further guidance. Fever after vaccination typically resolves within a few days, but keeping a close eye on her symptoms is essential for her well-being.
