99.0 really isn't a fever if your babies temp gets to be 101-102 then I would call you MD. I'm not sure where you live but most places have a nurse line I would call and just see what they have to say. It's most likely just a cold but I would call to be sure.

It depends on where the temperature was taken. If you took it rectally, it's not a fever. If you took it under the arm, it could be a low-grade fever. The general rule is to add a degree for taking the temp under the arm, subtract for rectal temps.
With that young age, call your doc just to be sure.

Usually a teething fever is below 101. however and infection is 101 and over... like ear infection etc. it also depends on where your taking ehr temp at, don't forget under her arm add a degree! Otherwise pacifiers and ear thermometors will probably read differently.

98.6 is normal for humans with only a few tenths variance. The 2 symptoms may be irritants or allergic responses. Look for the obvious things: dust, cloth fibre or fumes. Bath and laundry soaps/ conditioners may also play a role.

Yes that is a fever. Call your Doctor or go to the hospital. Probably nothing major, but always better safe than sorry I hope all is well

Are you taking it under the arm? If so, add 2 degrees to whatever the reading is. Call your doctor immediatel if it's over 99!!!

It is normal for a baby to be warm.If it gets higher than 101 then take him to the doctor.

It may be a low grade fever. My doctor told me that babies should always be seen by a doctor if they have a fever. Especially newborns.

a rectal temp over 100.4 is considered a fever, but if you are concerned call the doctor.

how are you taking the temp? If it rectaly the you minus a degree. if its under the arm then add a degree. Is your baby teething?
