7 month old with temp of 102-104 for 3 days???
in Baby
Our poor little pops has had a temp for the last 3 days (this is the third) ranging between 102-104 and i just can't get it down or break the fever.
In herself shes quite lathergic (last night and this morning) and i'm starting to get worried but i know the doc wont do anything- any advice ladies how do i break this fever??
Her twin brother has a nasty ear infection at the mo and her sister has a bit of a cold so i had been thinking it was linked to this but neither of them are running a fever and seem okay in themselves.
Advice welcome i've done calpol, nurphen, baths etc, she is drinking although not taking full feeds and has had a few loose nappies.

I hope your little one feels better soon, and if it continues with no obvious sign of the cause I would definitely take a trip to the doc
I had been wondering about teeth but she has her 2 bottoms and the ones on top are showing no sign of coming?!
Hope it works out.

My mum, the oracle of all wisdom said when I was unsure, thinking, I know what they'll say....! Said, 'They get paid enough!' (No offence to any people in the medical profession here!) But I thought, you're right! Lol!!
Hope your DD feels better soon xxx

Have you tried putting her near a fan, to help cool her. Will she take water? A cool shower somtimes helps. I think it is more the running water rather than sitting in water. I know Emilia finds showers relaxing, so maybe it will do the same for poppy and this might help bring her temp down? I just take her in with me and she likes to have the water run down her back...and then she likes to try and grab the water!
I hope she feels better soon, and you find out the cause xx

My dr is good in that I mention little ones and fevers we're straight in.
Hope she's better soon
