5 month old more tired a couple of weeks after being unwell?

I’m going to book an appointment with my GP but wondered if anyone else has any experience of this.

My 5 month old wasn’t well a couple of weeks ago - had a cough / runny nose / sneeze - possibly covid…

Her wake windows were 2-2.5 hours prior to this.

Since being unwell she gets really tired by 1.5 hours of being awake. She has had really short naps (30-45 mins) since she was about 4 months.

She also started STTN the day she became unwell (8-6 ish)

I don’t know whether this is normal for a few weeks after they’re not well?

Just took her temp and it was 38.7… it was 36.something the week she wasn’t well so now I’m worrying.

Given her calpol and taking her to the GP in a couple of hours (of which I’ll spend panicking).
