Ignore it: Fever is a natural body response to illness that increases pulse rate. This speeds up the natural circulation of healing factors. Most infants with mild fevers do not need treatment & treatment in theory can lengthen the illness. Only when fever interferes with fluid intake & feeding would I consider treatment a benefit. In many cases it can be ignored & will pass in minor illness.
