Baby has a fever what should I do?? And where should I take the temp at??

take it in the bum, give him a cool bath and strip him down to just his diaper or put a cool rag on his forehead. my son battled a fever two days ago. hope all goes well! @omari

under arm is easiest

Thanks @nicholefrank

the bum is most accurate! you have to had a couple degrees if done under the arm or in the ear. @spudssmommie @omari

I've checked every where but what is most accurate @spudssmommie

rectally but it's also hard and if your baby moves as much as mine dangerous if you poke them

What is too high @nicholefrank

103 or higher in a nine month old. typically 104. but I was going to take my son to the ER if it hit 103 @omari

Ok that what my mom said. @nicholefrank

Thank you ladies. He's never had a fever so it's all new to me. @nicholefrank @spudssmommie

I heard of taking peppermint oil and putting a few drops on the baby's get every thirty minutes and it will help to break the fever
