All people's temps are the same at normal levels -
98.6 by mouth [ not recommended for infant ]
99.6 rectally
98.0 axillary [ in armpit ]
As long as baby is within one degree of that, and has no ill symptoms, he/she is OK.
Normal newborns have a tendency to get a DECREASE in temp when very ill, vs. an increase.
