Fever relief: Anything over 100.3 is considered a fever. In infants the most reliable way to measure fever is with a rectal thermometer. A low grade fever like this can be caused by many things. Most of the time Acetaminophen is all you need to give her. If she is acting okay otherwise - no need for concern. If she is listless, has decreased appetite, or seems like she is in pain - she needs to see MD

Fluids, Tylenol: Low grade temperature can be monitored without meds. Ibuprofen or Tylenol can be given after 6 mo when the kid is grumpy or seems in pain. For fever with concerning change in activity or appearance, contact your physician. If baby seems happy and playful, taking fluids well, you can monitor at home for a few days.Most are simple viruses and self heal.
