Random fever wwyd

LO has been running a low grade fever since last night. No other symptoms and she slept normal last night. I thought it might be her teeth but they don't look/feel any different. Would you give Tylenol or just wait until she acts uncomfortable or the fever rises? Thanks! Pic for your time!

    She is aDORABLE!

    What's the fever? My pedi said they don't consider anything under 101 something to worry about.

    I personally would give Motrin if it's 100

    It hasn't hit 100, just in the 99.something range!

    Don't give anything for that temp unless LO is acting uncomfortable/in pain. 99s is technically not even a fever.

    If it is only 99 I wouldn't do anything. A fever is technically over 100.4. What made you take her temp? 


    Her head was unusually warm, And her cheeks a little red

    I'd undress her or put her in a short sleeve onesie, but would only medicate at that point if she were acting like she felt miserable or if her temp went up.

    I wouldn't do Tylenol for that.  If she is unusually warm try a cold rag on her forehead or back of her neck.  That is always what I do first before resorting to Tylenol.
