This is normal variartion of temperature. Definition of fever is more than 99.5. Typically till 100 u may not take any paracetamol or other antipyretic. So its alrite so long as its not associated with any other syptoms, like chills, weakness, fatigue, cough etc.

If it is 99 then better to document temperature reading for 3 days (thrice a day) if it's going above 99 in same pattern then consult.
