Not unusual: Fever is a key aspect of how we fight infections- microbes don't survive at high temperature ; our white blood cells work better.Drugs to reduce fever help one feel better temporarily but prolong infections! let the fever run its course unless it gets really high (above 105) or baby miserable.Keep your baby well-hydrated. See doc if persists.See http://www.Pamf.Org/children/common/fever/ ; comment.
