My Son is 1 and half year old since last Evening around 9:30 pm. I felt his head to be hot with normal body temperature but he ate rice normally after that in midnight around 2 his whole body got hot and vomited with sticky white cough but he is not coughing. After Vomiting his Body temperature got down to normal level.
every time you feel that baby is hot you have to check the temperature in the armpit.. if it's 99 Fahrenheit or more than that you have to give paracetamol as per baby's weight...
Next Steps
and we also have to find the source and cause of infection.. so for that detailed consultation will be needed..
