First fever :(

L has her first fever, I can't remember if it's to early for baby Tylenol. Has anyone given it yet?

D and I both caught a virus... 3 weeks ago, I think? And he had a fever for a couple of days.

If she's over 12lbs, you can give infant tylenol (it should say "up to 23lbs" on the box) using the dosing chart on the package. Under 12lbs, call your Dr. Ours okay'd baby tylenol as early as 1 week old when we had D circ'd, just told us to use half of the dose for 12-18lbs.

I had to give 5 doses total every 4 hours before the fever broke for good - just grazed the 24-hour mark our Dr says to wait before bringing him in!
