Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

Help 102 fever

Ok DD woke up with 102 fever and screaming, I finally got her calmed down and gave her Tylenol but her fever isn't going down. I gave her a cold bath and that didn't help either. When can I try Motrin? How long after giving Tylenol?

  • I'm waiting on a nurse to call me back, but if anyone has any advice I would gladly take it.

  • I would give the Tylenol an hour, then give motrin.  You can alternate tylenol and motrin as long as you space out each repeated dose as recommended on the bottle.

  • She finally settled down and fell asleep. I talked to the nurse and she said I've done everything I can and just get her into the office today. Thanks ladies. At 17 months my lo has never had a fever so we have been very lucky! Thanks again!
  • DS had a fever of 102 for two days over the holiday weekend.  We thought it was the flu, but it turns out he was severely constipated.  Make sure you keep her hydrated!
