Off to the doctor. The boy has had a pretty high fever since yesterday and medicine just won't bring it down too much. It's barely been below 101, and he's just hot to the touch.

My 11mo spiked to 103 on Saturday. Still at 101 now

@newlyironman, 😞 Aww, yeah, his highest was 103.6 last night. Right now we're about 102. I think it's an ear infection, he's only had a fever like this when he had an ear infection last summer.

My son has only had a fever above 101 from an ear infection as well. Hope your lo feels better soon!

@newlyironman, his is viral 😔 so just have to wait it out.
Hope your daughter feels better soon!

@jewlmama, thank you. Turns out it's viral this time, so we're stuck just waiting for it to pass. I did learn that I can give him a bigger dose of medicine, though, so that'll help his fever!

Oh man, good luck girls.. my oldest son had a high fever like this when he was younger, 103 for 4 days, when it finally broke, he was covered in a rash.. they said it was a virus called Roseola. Hope everyone is feeling better soon.
You can also piggyback motrin and tylenol, ask the pediatrician about it, they are different meds. Dose of one, then 2 hours later give the other med so they overlap.

@my3sons329, thank you! I'm waiting for the rash 😖 last summer when he had the ear infection he also had a viral rash.
Thank you, piggy back is the only way his fever stays down! I think he burns it up fast. He had motrin around 230 and his temp is already back back up to 102.4

Oh man, poor baby!!! Maybe a nice bath will help? He he only wants to be held you can try to wipe him down with a washcloth. Oh goodness, this brings back memories.. I hate sick babies 😔
