what should his temp be?

[starlover]

what should ds's temperature be? he is 7m

Around 37. I don't think this changes with age like heart rate.

Normal body temperatures in a well child can range from 97.7 degrees F / 36.5 degrees C to 100 degrees F / 37.8 degrees C. Babies have higher temperatures than older children, and everyone's temperature tends to go up during the day and down after midnight

Is he ok Starlover?

under about 37.5, Starlover. I've got a Braun digital ear thermometer and it says up to 38 is within normal range. what's ds's temp?

He is veryt clammy and not quite himself.
temp is about 36, but only have a strip thermometer so not that accurate

Aww bless him. Has he got any teeth coming through or anything? If you keep him in just a nappy it'll help stop his temp going up if it starts to

Infant paracetamol is good for bringing temp down.

not sure. he;s been really,r eally dribbly for ages now but no sign of teeth yet!

That's what ds was like with his - loads of dribble for ages but no teeth. With him he would wake up screaming in the night - not fun!!

Hopefully that's what it is and he's not coming down with something, poor little chap!

hmm yeh he has been waking a bit in the night too, although generally pretty easy to settle again... perhaps that's what it is!

Sounds like teething to me starlover, ds3 has been like this for ages.
