If your baby's body temperature is higher than 37.2 degrees Celsius, it is considered a fever. Therefore, if your baby's body temperature is 37 degrees Celsius, it is normal and not a fever, but there are exceptions in clinical practice. If your baby's basal body temperature is relatively low, and the body temperature exceeds the basal body temperature by more than one degree Celsius, it may also be a fever. If your baby's body temperature is 37 degrees Celsius, and your baby's spirit is poor, appetite is poor, it is likely to be a fever. For this situation, you need to go to the hospital in time to find out the cause. You may need to do blood tests and other related tests to evaluate the patient's condition, and then give corresponding treatment according to the patient's specific cause. For the baby, it shows a low fever situation. The most common is viral upper respiratory tract infection. In this case, symptomatic treatment can be given. But you need to ensure that your baby has sufficient water intake, otherwise your baby may show dehydration, which may cause some serious consequences.
