It could just be a fluke if she's acting fine. Did you check it rectally? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-experience-a-low-grade-fever-100-with-a-newborn#post-1465388 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 06:30:38 +0000 mjane 1465388@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, at her first ped appt (so 3 days old or so?) she was around 100.0. They made us stay in the office until it dropped, which it did, fairly soon. It seemed to me like she was overheated and maybe thirsty? I just breastfed endlessly I think. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-experience-a-low-grade-fever-100-with-a-newborn#post-1465374 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 05:42:26 +0000 Lindsay05 1465374@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ash: She has been acting completely normal, maybe a smidge unsettled. Been eating well and still wets diapers.</p> <p>@lamariniere: Ok, thanks for your reply. I will keep monitoring and any change at all i will bring her in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-experience-a-low-grade-fever-100-with-a-newborn#post-1465335 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 02:33:25 +0000 lamariniere 1465335@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm in Austria, so things are a little different here, but our ped said anytime it is over 99 before she is 2 months, take her to the hospital. Glad we finally got to 3 months with no incident! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-experience-a-low-grade-fever-100-with-a-newborn#post-1465326 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 01:40:24 +0000 Ash 1465326@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree but what's the reason you checked it? Is she acting abnormal? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-experience-a-low-grade-fever-100-with-a-newborn#post-1465274 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 00:02:57 +0000 Lindsay05 1465274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What did you do?</p> <p>LO who is 7 weeks old, has had around a 100 degree fever for about 6 hours now. I called the nurses and they said anything over 100.4 to bring her in. </p>
