Why didn't the pediatrician nurse tell me that! ha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/persistent-low-fever#post-672033 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 21:42:25 +0000 Weagle 672033@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Technically, that's not a fever, but I know my LO usually runs cooler than normal and I would consider 100 a fever for her. She just got over 3 days of 101-103 with no other symptoms. She's perfectly happy now. Also, cortisol levels are highest at 7pm, so it's completely normal for a temp to be higher then. Everyone's temp is a bit higher in the evening. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/persistent-low-fever#post-671904 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 20:17:04 +0000 immabeetoo 671904@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yoursilverlining: nope, rectal... we have a temple one but LO shakes his head back and forth violently when we try to use it, haha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/persistent-low-fever#post-671899 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 20:13:59 +0000 yoursilverlining 671899@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Are you using a temple thermator? Our ped said those notoriously test high, so if you use one of those maybe your LO isn't really running much of a fever? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/persistent-low-fever#post-671885 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 20:09:45 +0000 immabeetoo 671885@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@pelikila: interesting! i'll have to peek in his mouth tomorrow... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/persistent-low-fever#post-671784 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 18:49:20 +0000 pelikila 671784@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For us that signified teething and the green poop was due to swallowing so much saliva. Not all kids run a low grade fever when teething but my son does. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/persistent-low-fever#post-671686 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 18:09:18 +0000 immabeetoo 671686@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>To preface, I have called the pediatrician. They said if it gets over 101 to call, or to call if he's had it for a week (which will be Friday).</p> <p>LO had a cough &amp; snotty nose for a week but it cleared up and he got his 4 month shots. We were wary of a fever after the shots and he had one the next afternoon, about 100. We gave Tylenol and it went away by mid-night.</p> <p>The same thing has happened since then, with no fever in the morning and by late afternoon/early evening it's somewhere between 99.5-100.7. He seems otherwise normal and happy and is eating/sleeping fine. He did just have one oddly green poop, but otherwise appears normal.</p> <p>Has anyone experienced this? I'm going to call tomorrow because we're supposed to leave town on Friday but I'm not sure what they'll "test" for or do when it's.. just a low fever.</p> <p>Thoughts? </p>
