QUICK - do I take my DS to the GP?

[eenybeeny]

He has been unwell a couple of days - very hot and saying his neck hurts which I presumed to be his throat. Just now he was sick all over me. Milky white chunky stuff like cottage cheese. Dont want to over react but am concerned. Would you go to GP?

yes it's meant to be tepid isn't it.

no its meant to be warm. tepid will make the body warm itself up. trying to find a link

slightly different but I have heard drinking a hot cup of tea will cool you down???

oh i always thought the definition of tepid was lukewarm ...

yes tepid and lukewarm is the same. both mean not hot not cold. when you touch it feels like nothing.

now i'm confused lol. i thought you said it was meant to be warm. is warm and lukewarm not the same?

lukewarm is coolish. you need proper warm bath water to make the body cool itself down.

no, lukewarm isn't cool - but it's only just warm.. like a baby's bottle warm.

Tonsilitus?

i suppose it depends on how warm your baby drinks their milk ds' has his probably at about 37 degrees which i would say is warm.

My DS drank his breastmilk from the breast - not sure what temp that is - formula at room temp and now he is on cows milk and that comes straight out of the fridge!! He has never been into warm stuff really!

I dont know about the tonsilitus thing - he seems better today much perkier than before. I will keep an eye!
