When Should I Call My Child's Doctor?\n\nThe exact temperature that should trigger a call to the doctor depends on the age of the child, the illness, and whether the child has other symptoms with the fever.\n\nCall your child's doctor if you have an:\n\n    * infant younger than 3 months with a temperature of 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit (38 degrees Celsius)\n    * older child with a temperature of higher than 104 degrees Fahrenheit (40 degrees Celsius)\n\nIf an older child has a fever of less than 104 degrees, call the doctor if the child also:\n\n    * refuses fluids or seems too ill to drink adequately\n    * has persistent diarrhea or repeated vomiting\n    * has any signs of dehydration\n    * has a specific complaint (i.e., sore throat or earache)\n    * still has a fever after 24 hours in a child younger than 2 years or 72 hours in a child 2 years or older\n    * has recurrent fevers, even if they only last a few hours each night\n\nSeek emergency care if your child shows any of the following signs along with a fever:\n\n    * inconsolable crying for several hours\n    * extreme irritability\n    * lethargy and difficulty waking\n    * rash or purple spots that look like bruises on the skin (that were not there before the child got sick)\n    * blue lips, tongue, and nails\n    * infant's soft spot on the head seems to be bulging outward\n    * stiff neck\n    * severe headache\n    * limpness and refusal to move\n    * difficulty breathing that doesn't get better when the nose is cleared\n    * leaning forward and drooling\n    * seizure\n\nAlso, check with your child's doctor for his or her specific guidelines on when to call about a fever.

Ask your pediatrician about it. If he says her height is fine for her age, don't worry about it. \nYou must know also that everyone is different when growing up, there are grow charts where her height can be compared and say if she's fine. The height of you and her father also counts.\nAlso remember that girls grow faster than boys at 11 years. \nStop worrying and encourage your child to feel happy with herself. Many top models felt once unhappy with her height and now they earn millions.

Be EXTREMELY respectful to her father and mother.  And if you promise to have her home by a certain time, get her home by that time and not a minute later.

depends on how tall she is. I am 4ft 11" and I am 27. Most kids that age are about my height. ( I know its sad)  I should weigh between 100-115. :) Hope this helps. Or you can make a doctors appointment and discuss it with the doctor.

It's 12 in New Mexico or 13 if there is another child. Check with your Family Services Department. They'll be able to tell you the law.

Sounds like a fabulous opportunity for your daughter. Go for it.

Take her to a play if one is nearby.  They are wonderful and hardly anybody takes their kids now days so it will be different.

Put her in the car and drive the 3 hours to the hospital!\n\nBetter safe the sorry.

Yes.  She would just have to make sure she had a good doctor to help her to make sure she stays healthy and the baby stays healthy.  Good Luck.

anywhere her mom and dad say you can.  be sure to make it home by curfew!

Since you care about her pleasure and are taking the time to make sure she is happy (before or after is fine) I think you will be just fine. \n\n5 minutes if she is properly warmed up may be enough anyway!

When it reaches 103.5 then is when I usually go to the doctor. But I also have 2 very young children and the doctors tell you that if thier fever gets to 104.0 get them to the doc soon as possible because it can cause brain damage. I hop I answered your question and if you are worried go to the doc and don't wait, better safe than sorry. Also you may want to try to take some tylenol then 4 hours later take motrin and alternate til the fever breaks that is what I do for my children. Get Better

oh i feel so sorry for your little one! that's way too long to be sick. and a fever of 104 is extremely high which can be dangerous. when my daughter was 16 months, her fever got so high she had a seisure. the doctor said very high fevers can cause brain damage. you should give your daughter motrin which will really knock that fever out for alot longer period of time than tylenol. i have had several doctors tell me over the years that you can give motrin and tylenol at the same time. i really hope she gets well real soon. i will say a prayer for her as soon as i'm done typing this. oh geeze i just realized you said may 19, i thought it said may 6! so it's been about 4 days, hang in there. a month ago my 4 year old son was sooooo sick for 4 days, high fevers, vomiting, i was so scared i took him to ER twice and the clinic once. it was just something i had to wait out and let it take it's course.

What kind of amazon are you hanging around with, that can tote an 11 yr old kid on her shoulders all day? The kid has two legs, I assume, suggest that he walk, if the kid doesn't walk, maybe you should.

a fever is the way your childs body starts to fight of an infection. If she has had it all day and it is not dropping, take her to the ER. you can try to let her sit in a lukewarm bath, if you live in or near missouri St. louis has a nursing hotline that you can call to ask ??'s. i have called them before and they are really helpful. You may try to call your dr. at home. You do not need to give her anymore meds. It is dangerous to exceed the dosage w/o a doctors order. my peditrician and my son's nuerologist both say to alternate children's tylenol and children's motrin every 3 hours if that doesnt work then they need to be seen. God Bless and good luck. I know its scary to have a sick child, but stay calm and if nothing else, a trip to the ER may be your best bet.

Swimming, I do it all the time, when I was younger I was always pushing 200 pounds and then we moved to a house with a pool, after three months I was down to 150. Good luck to you and your daughter.

Technically she should not be more than 50lb. Go to see the doctor. HTH.
