Fever advice

[Birdie]

DS was staying at my moms last night when he spiked a fever to about 101.5. We went and picked him up (Womp womp) and gave him Advil. The fever hovered between 100-102 the rest of the night as we alternated advil and tylenol. He's still drinking bottles and having wet diapers.

Anything else we can do to make him comfortable? He was ok overnight but is pretty miserable right now. Poor guy. No idea what is going on.

Does he has any cold symptoms or rash?

You can try a tepid bath but don't pour the water on his head.

Cold symptoms yes. He started with a runny nose overnight and one eye is kind of goopy (not red though). No rash yet.

Thanks this is good to know! I'm going to give him a bath later and would have just done the normal routine.
