Poor little guy has 2 bottom teeth coming in right now. He got a fever last night of 99.9 under his arm. It went down to normal after Tylenol. Woke up at 4am to feed and it was back up to 101.4 (temporal). I'm hoping it doesn't continue to keep rising. 😢
Other than the fever and being somewhat fussy he seems normal though.

Is the 101 including the added degree?

@sawyersmom I thought you only added the 1 degree for axial (underarm)?

But either way his temp came down within 30 minutes with the Tylenol. And he seems much better now that we're up for the day. Playing with toys and such.

And the forehead. The forehead is less accurate then the armpit

Yes, you only add 1 degree to axial. Not temporal. @vward

Idk I just found an article that says the standard is oral temp and to correct other methods to the oral equivalent you add 1 for armpit & forehead, and subtract 1 for rectal & ear...
