My son is 10 months old. For the past week he's had a temp on and off and just generally been grouchy and more tired than usually (although not lethargic or floppy of course!).
He has had a Covid test which was negative. And apart from the temp doesn't seem to have any other symptoms.
He was sent home from nursery on Monday for a temp of 38.8 and I took him straight for a Covid test and he then slept most of the day when we got home (his temp had come down with Calpol).
He seemed okay Tuesday just a little clingier than usual but no temp, gave Calpol just in case, Covid result came back negative so hoped just a 24hr thing and he went back to nursery yesterday and seemed fine.
They contacted me again today to say his temp had spiked again and again he's slept a lot at home when I picked him up. He's back asleep now but his temp was again in the 38+ numbers this evening.
I'm of course giving Calpol to bring them down which does work but I just get very worried.
He was in hospital a short while ago with bronch, I don't think it's that, he doesn't have a cough or anything but he was very poorly on oxygen and he deteriorated very quickly that time that any sign of illness now gets me panicked.
I feel like I've not stopped taking him to the doctor recently! (Twice with the bronch and another time just before that when he had the runs for longer than I was happy with).
Is it too soon to see the GP? Or should I get him in?
My mind just goes straight to things like meningitis ect..
