what should I do?
I took Lola's temperature and it was 100.1 under one arm and 100.9 under the other. Is this okay? What should I do?
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 and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?

Be careful too that she's not bundled up too much. Babies have a hard time regulating their temps so too much clothes and blankets can make them a little hot like that

@boutinmm thank you I got her fever to go down yesterday after I gave her tylenol. I talk to a nurse yesterday and she told me what to do. I am making a dr appt tomorrow morning though to make sure she's 100% okay since she was still coughing a bit today.

Under one year my doctor says call with any temp over 100! Under arm readings are not accurate. It's anywhere from .5 to 1 degree off. So your baby is probably nearing 101. I would definitely call your on call pediatrician! Good luck mama!

Thanks ladies I will check her temperature rectally if I feel her warm again. I checked this morning and it was 98 degrees and I can definitely tell she's way happier today. My love bug is feeling better (:

If it's just a regular digital thermometer with the little metal tip you can use it rectally just put a little Vaseline on it first. Just insert the tip. Then just buy a new one to use for your mouth/arms.

Make sure you add a degree under the arm!!! Rectal temperature is more accurate. I would call the doctor if it is over 101.0. Give her Tylenol and a cool bath will help too. Dress her lightly. My LO was sick last week and he just hung out in a onsie all day. Lots of fluids too.

Vicks makes a thermometer and it'll light up green if the temperature is ok and yellow for low grade and red for high. It can be used rectal to. I think I got it for 7 bucks.

I would take her temperature rectally to get a more accurate reading and if it's still that high I would call her doctor. My daughters doctor has always told me that he wants to see her for anything 100.4 or higher. I hope she's better soon!

I'm a ftm but they say to just watch low fevers and make sure they don't last over a day or too or get higher...hope it goes down and ur LO is good!
