My little boy is kind of warm and will not go to sleep even though he is very tired! I think if he cooled down he could fall asleep and I already gave him Infants Tylonal! Can I crack the window in his room or does anyone have any suggestions?

You can put him in a lukewarm bath to help bring the fever down. Do not bundle him up. Depending on what his other symptoms are, you shouldn't crack a window...It could make him worse. Continue to monitor his fever. If Tylenol & Motrin are not helping and/or he's had it for 3 days or more then you need to call your pediatrician.

I hate open windows - especially at night. I would put a light weight blanket on the little guy and maybe take his P.J top off. When the Tylenol kicks in he will probably be o.k. Hope he gets better soon!

Try giving him a warm bath playing some soft music sing to him he might be teething. wet a washcloth and put it in the freezer.Allow it to get cold and let him chew on it.Hold him take him for a walk He needs your patience love and understanding.Hang in there its going to all work out saying a prayer might help

Certainly, but don't leave it open all night. Just until he dozes off. A cool-ish bath would also work, or you could try dressing him in just an undershirt?
