   i just went throug this the other day and stressed about it the doctor told me that if the baby’s temp is 40 and it is under 12 weeks then take straight to hospital, my son had a temp of 39.5 but the doctor wasnt stressing too much as he is fighting off a bug and its expected to be a bit high if they have a cold or are teething they more worry about what is causing the temp rather than the temp (it turned out my son was teething as well) just use a cool flannel to sponge him off and just light layers,
   and take to doctor if they are above 37.5 for 3 days or more
   but if you are truly worried and in australia give the nurse on call a ring their number is 1300606024 and you can call them about absolutely anything good luck
   oh and remember if you take the temp under the armpit you must add .5 degrees

   no, normal temp for an infant is 36-38 celcius. if you baby is under 3 month age and has a temp of 38 or higher then call the doc, otherwise you should be fine.

   Are you talking celsius or something??
   The human body, including infants, temprature is 98.6 degrees F. If your child has a temprature of 100 degrees F then this would be a slight temprature.
   I don’t know anything about celsius temprature…but if you are talking farrenheit then your child would be frozen dead if the temprature was as low as you say.
