My 2 week old I believe has a fever ... She feels warm, but my stupid forehead thermometer jumps from 100.4 down to 98.6 within seconds of swiping her forehead... I gave her .6 ml of Tylenol ... She is breastfed and she threw up everything she ate at about 4 am and I just fed her again at 7 and she's kept it down so far... Am I doing everything I should be doing ? I'm a FTM and I'm so worried... I haven't slept a wink 😩 ANY ADVICE OR HELP PLEASE ... Any one else have experience with this ?
Do rectal! If you do armpit, add a degree. But just keep an eye and make sure the temp doesn't go up to high or bring her in!
take her temperature under her armpit..thats also another accurate way of doing it when they are that age
Went and bought a rectal thermometer and her temp was great. Stupid forehead thermometer scared the shit out of me
