This is my first experience of having a poorly baby.
Dd is 13 months and very listless / easily upset today. Her temperature is 38 (but it's flaming hot here - too hot for me). She's had about half a dose of paracetemol (wouldn't open her mouth, didn't want to risk giving her too much)
I seem to recall that "fever" in babies is 39 but I can't remember. Should I take her to the doctor's anyway?
