If u r giving top feed,plz stop it. Give fever medication if needed. Watch for danger sign like drowsiness, dehydration,refusal to feed, frequency of passing urine is decreased. If any of these present contact nearby pediatrician. Continue breastfeeding. Baby should be ok soon U can send me detail history , than I can guide u further. Thanks
