Baby's First Fever!

in Babies: 3 - 6 Months
Ugh!  My LO is just about 6 months old with his first slight fever.  It was 100.5 before I gave him Tylenol. I already called the pedi and they just advised the Tylenol and even alternating that with infant Motrin if the fever gets higher. I'm a first time mom so this is just so awful to watch the first time. I don't think it's teething because he is very sluggish. It's obvious he doesn't feel good. Any advice for a FTM with a sick one? I feel kinda lost since this is new for me!

    You can also try a lukewarm bath to cool him off. Is he still eating properly? There's all kinds of stuff going around this time of year :( 

     Just call your pediatrician any time you have doubts - better safe than sorry :)<span style="f
