because I'm not but I'm very laid back with stuff like this.. it's Friday so if she gets worse there's no doctors until Monday.

I figure she's fine but interested in your thoughts..

Why won't you give her some Calpol or Ibuprofen to lower her temperature?

oops sorry you have!

Ditto my DD (3) regularly gets high temperatures. Basically pretty much every time she gets a cold virus. Some react like this some don't.
We treat with Calpol and Calprofen. Last GP i saw did tell me that Calpol better for temperature and Ibuprofen for pain (the earache that she gets).

she spent the afternoon mostly sleeping on the sofa. she has had 3 slices of toast today and they're all still inside her. she's fast asleep in bed now so hopefully will be a bit brighter tomorrow.
