Why would a 6 day old baby be hospitalized for a low temp?(93 degrees)?

some babies just don't have enough body fat to maintain their  heat. this might point to a problem with the baby's metabolism, or a problem the mom had during pregnancy.

you really need to go to the ER asap. the high temperature can cause you serious problems if you dont get it down. since it went away and then came back it shows that it is still in your system,you need antibotics seriously. you dont wanna harm your body.

saline drops should do the trick- Poor baby!

Colds are caused by viruses, not 68 degree weather.  I always sleep with the temp around there and I have never had any problems. So long as the children have adequate blankets and warmth at night they should be fine.  A lot of people prefer a colder temp setting at night.   I've always been weary of humidifiers because I am very sensitive to mold, but if they have never had any problems with it I wouldn't worry.  Kids get sick all the time, that's just a part of life, it's not from the temp setting.

Anything above 37 degrees is not normal (could go technically speaking up to 42 when you fry).\nYou can feel ok and still have temperature above 37 degrees. The causes could be different but it is often a sign that there is a process in your body that needs to be taken care of. \nIf it persists, go to you doc.\nHope it helps

I've been a nurse for 18 years and have taken thousands and thousands of temperatures...\n\nYour temp 40.8C is 105.4F.  The highest one I ever took was 105.2. The body can start having seizures around 105.  I hope you're feeling better now.  Keep resting and drinking a lot of fluids.

Its probably just genetics and the weather, but if it keeps happeneing throughout weeks on end try visting a doctor they'll probably know the solution.:) Don't worry she'll be fine!

Contact you doctor as soon a possible!!!  If this behavior is out of character for her then something may be disturbed without causing a fever. \nIt's always better to be on the safe side... rather than the sorry!!!

I don't think you are being unreasonable. Babies are usually warmer in body temperature anyway. Warm sleeping clothing and a light blanket is all they need and you should be able to run your air conditioning. Careful that it does not blow directly onto them. Why should you be uncomfortable. One thing though- try to keep your communication open with your girlfriend. She is probably overly concerned as a new mother would be. Let her know you are understanding and working with her - not against her. You dont' want to alienate your relationship with her at this time. You have a new family and loving them is the most important thing. Good luck with your new family.

no cats go into heat instead. its scary to watch a 6 month old kitten go into heat. but my baby is fixed now too

if she is not eating you should take her to the doctor! babies need to eat, and they certainly should not be "lean". your child is not getting enough nutritien, so she needs to be taken to the hospital.

Between 70 and 72 degrees.  Just remember - - as long as you're comfortable, baby's comfortable too.

Sorry to hear this. It doesnt take too long to work, if its going to work. My nephew was born premature and had the shots but his lungs still weren't developed enough. He was in the NICU for 10 days but is perfect now. If you have adequate amnionic fluid right now, that is one of the best advantages. Amazing things are happening for preemies these days and I bet everything will turn out okay!

At 9 months old pretty much all the medication is labeled as "consult doctor first".  Not until after 2 should you really start following label directions without a doctor's advice.\n\nSo my advice would be make an appointment with her pediatrician for as early as you can today.\n\nOther than that keep her warm but not over bundled.  Use layers.  Offer her lots of liquids, extra juice and water.  Run a humidifier if you can.

I am a Registered Nurse and I have had a subnormal core body temperature all my life.  Some people just have lower core body temps than others.  It isn't a bad thing, but you may have a fever at 98.9 whereas the next guy will have one at 99.9 or 100.  It has also been noted than when a person is truly sticking to a diet, the core body temperature drops as well and they begin to experience being chilly when they didn't before.  This, too, has happened to me.  Hope that helps.

Babies have a delicate balance they need to maintain. A sauna would raise their temputure too much, and could be deadly. Do not put them in hot tubs either.

my baby is like that, just realize that his system is nt fully developed and his body cannot control his body temp.  just dress him very lightly, and dont cover him all the time.
