What would you do?

We came home from a birthday party yesterday late afternoon and DS told me he was cold [we live in Texas, so it was not cold! Lol]. He felt warm so when we came home I took his temp and it was 102. He was acting a little tired but he played hard so I wasn't worried. He ate dinner, I put him to bed around 7 with Tylenol. Checked his temp around 9 and it was 103. Gave Motrin this time and he went back to sleep. He woke up around 1 am and it was back up to 103 again so I gave Tylenol and brought him in bed with me. He was wide awake and acting totally normal! He finally fell asleep and woke up about 6 with a 103 again. In between medicines I can get it down to about 101 sometimes 100. He's eating, drinking, wetting totally normal. But what concerns me is there was a note on his door at daycare that he was exposed to strep throat. Wouldn't he be miserable?! I know I was when I had it when I was around 7. If he's not better [temp wise] around lunch we were going to take him to ER. Should I chance it and make an appt for tomorrow morning or just bring into ER?

    Have you tried doing the motrin/tylenol every two hours? 

    But I would just wait to get ahold of the pedi today.  I hope he's feeling better!

    I would also wait until today to call the pedi, but do whatever makes you feel comfortable! Poor little guy, hope he feels better soon!

    Thanks ladies! He is currently running around the house and feeling all better! Dr tested for strep just in case but it was negative. Glad I didn't take him into ER!
