A member asked:
My sisters house was very warm,her baby felt warm she took her babys temperature and it is 99.2 should she see a doctor?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Concerning temperatures vary by age, especially in newborns. A temp of 99.2 is not really considered a temperature in an infant. Continue to monitor the baby and make sure he or she is acting normal, eating well, and making wet diapers. If all else is fine there is no need to see a doctor.
