Should I let my baby sleep? she has a fever

She woke up with a 101 temp this morning. Shes been sleeping for 1 1/2 hours. Should I let her sleep or wake her up? Normally I go in and wake her up now but since shes not feeling well I am not so sure. I am afraid if I let her sleep she wont sleep tonight but I know when I am sick alls I want to do is sleep all day and night.

Re: Should I let my baby sleep? she has a fever

  • I only wake my son if his nap is coming up on 3 hours. When I'm sick I sleep more so I assume the same for babies.

  • Let her sleep.  She'll get back to her regular schedule when she feels better. 
  • When my LO has a fever, I let him sleep. If it starts to become longer than 2.5 or 3 hours, then I make noise and wake him up. But that's usually never the case!

    Please do not wake that poor child up. Even when she's well let her nap if she's tired.




  • Just checking back in...How is your LO feeling today?

    I guess my thinking was you said 1 1/2 hours which isn't all that long. DS is 3 and still takes a 2 hours nap and sleeps 10 hours at night. I'm jealous of you! DS was a great sleeper... DD is a nightmare! :( Glad your LO is feeling better.
