This has been going on for weeks, he seems better for a couple of days, then goes downhill again. He is snotty, moody and grumpier than usual, not playing as well as usual either.

dd1s normal body temp is around 35.6. Sounds normal enough.

Thank you Minky, reassuring to know this. He is really unsettled in his sleep. I have given Calbuprofen, but hasn't made a difference really. He was very hot earlier.

Hello Tinsel, is he any better today?

Hi MinkyBorage,

Thanks for asking, he hasn't got a temperature any more, back to 36.6, but woke several times briefly in the night. He is tired and grumpier than usual. I think it is just a head cold. I have never has a low temp like this before, so thank you for your reply...it made me feel calmer!

He seems to have pickes up everything going this winter. I think it's because it's the coldest weather he has had in his life so far! It has made him vunerable I guess"!
