Any moms out there have any suggestions on how to keep a toddlers fever down? I have tried motrin and tylenol, cold cloths (when he will let me), cool bath and he's been in a diaper most of the day but the fever keeps spiking back up to the 102 and 103 range. please help!
Our 5 year old did that for 4 days before I took him to the doctor; he had strep & his lungs sounded moist so he got put on antibiotics. Just keep doing what you're doing, try offering Popsicles and at the very least keep him drinking. If it won't stay down, take him in.
There are some fever reducer pad things at Walgreens on the same aisle as you would find Tylenol!😊
thanks ladies! we took him in last night and found out he has an ear infection but had no other signs or symptoms of it. So we started the antibiotics last night but this fever just won't stay down.
