My 3 year old is complaining of pain around her belly button and has a 38.5 temp. should we take her to be looked at. worried about her appendix?

Not particularly: The sign & level of temperature are both so non-specific it is not predictive of appendicitis. If she can walk around & jump up/down on either foot without triggering increased pain this is unlikely to be appendicitis.The opposite if she falls over in pain.
