Other times I’ve taken it it’s been 99.7 as his baseline.


Do yourself a favor and take it underarm. If it’s 99 or higher then it’s a fever.

You put same thermometer under arm? He feels warm, like it’s a fever…

I went to the doctor on Wednesday, and the waiting room was PACKED with phlegmy, coughing, hacking, sniffling, runny nosed children. It was wall to wall snot, I swear. I've never seen anything like it.

Good thing I was wearing a mask, I was scared to breathe!

I called again and doc said under 101 is normal and they don’t do blood work. Argh.

He already had rsv around two months ago.


Insist on bloodwork and chest xray and if they won't do it, go to urgent care or a different doctor.
How's his behavior and appetite?
