My new born has a fever :( ftm

[BabyMarquez]

There probably isn't much I can do for my new born baby that has a fever.  He's three weeks. If there is something I can do to make him feel a little better please mom's inform me! Otherwise I will take him in to the hospital in the morning if it continues

I'm sorry for you and your baby!! My 4 week old has a cold, and the doctor didn't do anything. I guess they technically can't. Anyway, best wishes and healing to your baby!!

OK thanks!

Have you taken his actual temperature?

[mummainoz]

Yeah, you need to get any unexplained fevers checked out. Good luck!

I woul go in immediately, or at least call a nurse line. A fever for newborns is very dangerous

Oh and if it's 100.4 or higher, I wouldn't wait til morning

[Emilee99]

Fever over 100.4 needs reported to ypur doctor asap in newborns. It's more serious in newborns than toddlers. Make sure he isn't overdressed and that's what's causing a rise in temp. Poor guy. Hope he's better soon.

I would take him. Or call the hospital and ask if you should go.  Fevers are scary especially  since he is soo young.
