Temperature and 5 month old

in Babies: 3 - 6 Months

At what temperature should I be concerned and call the DR for my (4 day shy of) 5 month old?  I believe I remember the DR saying 101.5, but could be mixing that up with 100.5 (which is what he has right now)?

 TIA!

    I was told they were only concerned with a temp like that up to 3 months of age.  My pedi said if it was really high like 103 to call, otherwise to just give tylenol.  However, he said if a temp lasted 3 days to call.

    Oh, great. That makes me feel better.  I'll, obviously, keep a close eye on it.

    Thanks!

    I was told 100.5...but if I were you, I would just call to be safe.  The doctor understands that us new moms need a little extra encouragement :)
