My ds1 has a temp of 39.7 degrees. He first showed a temp at about 3am this morning. I have been taking his temp throughout the day and giving him calpol and ibuprofen. It seemed to be under control mid afternoon so I stopped medicating. But now this is the reading I've just taken.
Given him more ibupreofen now.
He has been acting oddly all day, he has been very quiet, sleepy (but that may just be because he was up all night), but now he is laying on his dad, just still and quiet and he never does this.
Should I just keep checking his temp? When should I get him looked at? If at all
Thanx
