Hi, You can give  CALPOL. But baby's weight is not mentioned Can you send the weight so that appropriate dosage can be given Can sponge entire body with slight warm water too to decrease fever Can wait for 1to 2 days If fever is persisting more than 2 days better to see a doctor If temperature is more Than 100 F, is called fever
