Fever of 102+

Dane has had a fever since yesterday.  It goes down some with Tylenol, but then comes back.  Yesterday it was about 102.7, this morning down to 99.  Now tonight it was at 102.4, and down to 101.5 (tylenol about an hour ago).  He's eating fine and acting fine, just feels really warm and has red cheeks.

Would you call the pedi?

    Probably not but I'd keep an eye on him tonight.

    I'd try Motrin, but wouldn't call either. There's a high fever bug going around now-- DD had it twice.

    Could be a viral thing and nothing pediatrician could do. I would rotate between tylenol/motrin every 3 hours.

    I would wait for now.

    Thanks girls!  He's probably fine, but I always have that nagging "motherly worry" in the back of my head.  LOL

    If he doesn't have any other symptoms then I wouldn't call.
