OPINIONS PLEASE!! My 7 month old daughter has been running a fever for two days now, I give her Tylenol but as soon as it wears off the fever comes back. I took her to the hospital last night and her fever was 101.8, they gave her Motrin and sent us home. We went to bed, and then woke up and she was running a fever of 102.8, its 730 now and she's been running a fever all day. My local hospital is REALLY SHITTY, Is it worth an hour drive out of town or should I wait until tomorrow to take her to the doctor?
Same thing was happening to my daughter this past weekend. Took her to the hospital as well. I would switch back and forth from Tylenol and Motrin every 6 hours until I felt her fever wasn't coming back. Kept her in just her diaper. Good luck momma. I know it can be stressful.
Alternate Tylenol and ibuprofen every six hours and tomorrow is Saturday drs may not be open
