A. Baby's head warm than rest of body due to larger head surface area, Any temperature above 100 F is fever. Always measures temperature in armpits only. No need to give any fever medicine if fever is below 100 F. If asociated complaints like cough, cold, loose motion Treat that accordingly. Keep ur baby well hydrated. Baby should pass minimum urine 6-8 times per day.

PallaviMom of a 9 yr 5 m old girl6 years agoA. hello do thandi Patti...you can't medicine untill fever isn100.4 n above...The body temperature of an average, healthy human child or adult is 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit (37 degrees Celsius). But that does not make 98.7 degrees a fever or 98.5 degrees a case of hypothermia. ... Doctors consider an elevated temperature to be a fever when it reaches 100.4 degrees F (38 degrees C).
