My 7mo old has a fever of 102.8, running nose and loss of appetite?

Be seen: It sounds like the child needs to be seen. At this time of year, influenza is a great concern for a child.

See your doc: Any fever in a baby less than 12 mos needs a doctor visit. More importantly are the "cardinal signs" of babies - eating, drinking, peeing, pooping. When a baby isn't doing all four of these things normally, it's very concerning. See your baby's doc right away!
