I went and attended a lecture about what to do when your baby has a fever and wanted to post the document they gave us with info about baby's fever.

Also, the lady said that the most accurate way to take the fever, is by using an ear thermometer! And that fever is a GOOD thing because it's the final stage of the virus! because it kills the virus! so we should calm down and just take care of our baby!

She also talked about convulsion in babies when they reach temp above 39 degrees Celsius. In the document you can check how you can deal with that.

Also, babies under 3 months old should be taken to the ER if fever is above 38 degrees Celsius.

Just thought of sharing this quick info!
