At this age,if not accompanied by any other symptoms like coughing,vomiting,or refusal to feed or dullness,it usually is what is called dehydration fever,common in newborns. Just give regular feeds,keep baby in cool,comfortable clothing and surrounding. If with other symptoms,consult your paediatrician asap.
