I would wait and see, my dd was fine after her first lot, and second, but then ran a temperature with her third lot for some reason?? It's normal to be a little grumpy but if he seems distressed or starts burning up/refusing feeds then I would give some then.

Do you have a syringe for medicine? I found these easier when dd was younger.

The syringe makes it much easier.

I would give Calpol. Even if there is no temperature, the legs can get sore making them grumpy.
