DD woke up this morning at 5.30 feeling very warm. I took her temp and it was about 38.2. I just thought maybe she's a bit warm from being in her grobag so I took it off and just left her in her onesie. Gave her a feed and stood in front of one of the open doors for a bit to get the cool air and took a cold washer to bed with us (decided to put her back in bed with me) to put on her head.

She woke up at 7.30, still really warm. Temp was about 38.3 but I didn't leave it there for any longer so it may have been a little higher. I've done the cold washer again, she's now just wearing a singlet and nappy and i gave her some panadol. She doesn't seem 'sick', as in she is bright and alert, chatting and giggling, maybe a bit more grizzly than normal though.

I did think it was her teeth but I can't feel anything and it seems strange for it to just suddenly occur like that.

Whatever the cause, I'm just wondering what to do about her temp...should I keep doing what i'm doing and monitor or see if i can get a doctor's appointment? is 38.2 really that high or should i not be too worried just yet?
