I'm not sure what to do.... this is the 6th day that my baby has been unwell with the following symptoms: Temp rising to 103OF periodically, sweating alot, chesty cough. He has hardly eating for what is now 6 days, but has been drinking fluid -perhaps just enough. I have no faith in our GP ( long story) so instead spoke to the nurse. She said if he isn't better by the weekend to bring him in to the surgery, and with regards to his rise in temp 'kids don't control their body temperature as well as adults'? As this is the 6th day and he doesn't seem any better infact probably weaker without food I am begining to worry, but at the same time don't want to be seen as overeacting. Any advice would be appreciated.
