Fever That Won't Go Away After 2 1/2 Days, Too High for Teething

My daughter just had this too. She also had congestion. Her doctor suggested we give her Tylenol Fever-all. It is a supository (sp?) and that helped her fever go down. Also make sure you are giving the correct dosage of Tylenol/Motrin. Tylenol= 15mg/kg, Motrin= 10mg/kg. (1kg=2.2 lbs) Also try giving some Pedialyte. I hope your baby starts to feel better soon!!

You can alternate tylenol and motrin and if I remember once from my kids you can do the tylenol every three until it breaks but check with your pedi. By the way, my experience with fever, sleeping and eating issues has been it is almost always an ear infection.

Call her doctor, you don't want to take any chances... she may still be teething, she could maybe have an ear infection, could be a number of things...
God Bless

My 6.5 month old battled the recurring fever all last week and now has the runny nose too. I too called the dr and they said something was going around as long as he wasnt pulling on ear and warned that he may develop a rash after fever ended if it is roseola which was also going around

Poor baby...sounds just like the virus my two out of three kids had recently....it seems to be VERY contagious and I've seen similar posts in the past week with other children having the same symptoms. My kids ran an off and on fever for up to a week, had trouble eating from stomach pains and were both very tired. It seemed with both of my kids that when the fever passed, they finished off the virus with a sneezy runny nose.
Hope your baby gets better soon but make sure to alternate tylenol and motrin. Take care!
