2 months baby feels warm
Hi,
My 2 months old baby feels warm when I touch her or hold her. Checked temperature with digital thermometer in under arms, it is around 98.7.
She sweats behind head and her hair gets wet if I cover her head and ears. Her nose was slightly blocked which I cleared with saline drop and aspirator. Her face is little red.
Want to know and understand if she is having heat or cold. Also please let me know what should we do as next steps.
Please visit Pediatrician for physical meet.
Plenty of Breastfeeding with burping continued.
*General danger sign* (the child is not able to drink or vomits everything .the child has had convulsions .the child is lethargic or unconscious). Most children with a general danger sign need URGENT referral to hospital/physical meet with pediatrician for review.
Watch for vitals(urine output/urine color/blood in stool/fever/activity)....if deterioration present do follow u p
