Just googled it & it does say that's a fever and newborn should be taken to the er.. How old is your son ?

@katelyn_kristen,

This is what came up ! I remember my doctor telling me that 99.1 was a fever for a newborn but then I searched this up for you . @tinkerbell

so my son does have a low grade fever?

he's also doing some serious teething @katelyn_kristen @katelyn_kristen

Yeah it's a low grade fever , my son is teething also and I would notice his temp would go up because of it . If you have some Tylenol or orajel it'll help with the teething @tinkerbell

& he'll be more comfortable , I wouldn't worry about the temperature that much tho because it is common durning teething some Tylenol should help ☺️
