ExpertDr. Pandurang sawantPaediatrician4 years agoA. Any temperature above 100 F is fever in babies
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 as per ur pediatricians advice.
Keep ur baby well hydrated.
Baby should pass minimum urine 6-8 times per day.
Visit ur pediatrician once.

Sai Prasanthi R LMom of a 11 yr 6 m old boy4 years agoA. Hello dear parent! It will be a matter of worry if the fever is 100 and above. Maintain a good personal hygiene for your child. Make your baby wear comfortable clothing as per the season. Try giving a light sponge bath to reduce the intensity of the fever. If the fever increases consult your child’s doctor for evaluation and advice. Good luck and take care.
