I checked my son temperature in his rectum it was 99.6 but I checked under his armpit it's 96.4 which do I go by he's 5 months
Rectum is more accurate. And I took my 5 month old in yesterday when hers hit 102.2 and while we were here it hit 103.3 but it's gone now. I would take him in if its at like 101
Rectal temperature is always the most accurate but it is not considered a fever till 100.2 rectal temp. Even then it's low grade fever and they will not admit baby to the ER unless it reaches 105.0℉.
you're good @jazmin805 ! I Just looked it up and the fever for a newborn is 100.3 but my doctor told me I should take my baby to the hospital if it gets to 100.2 so that's what I go by:)
oh i thought it was like 106.something for some reason. ..i was just hungry 😳 sorry guys @madismommy
you only have to worry when the temp is over 100.2 if it's over that then its a fever
thays scary i woukd say er if its 96..he can get brain damage

i think my baby has pink eye :( he has his 2 month old check up on the 30th, is there anything i can do at home til then?? his eye is mucousy & drippy & has discharge. :(
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Hi i
fever at 100.4 is a small fever that's what my aunt told me and she is a rn for a children's hospital
