Hi Mummies!! My LO is going for her 3rd month jab tomorrow and I'm afraid she might get fever. How to prevent it? Do you all give fever med after injection eventhou ur LO does not have fever? TIA

My baby gets fever everytime after jabs. Wad u can do is, buy Kool Fever pad to prepare to stick on baby's forehead when there's fever. Polyclinic will give fever syrup after e jab. Wad i do is, i will monitor wif a thermometer. If baby get more than 37.5 degree, i will give e syrup. (The reason for me is, i dun wait till e fever gets too high. It is very hard to manage if too high. I will try to give meds near to e evening timing like 4pm onwards. Before baby's night slp. Cos at nite itz very difficult for u to feed meds when baby wans to slp! And temperature tends to go up when in e evening onwards!) Then i will stick e pad on forehead to maintain e reduce of fever (buy those tat says will last for 8hrs). If fever subsides after e pad last finish, den dun need to put e Kool Fever pad alrdy. Monitor e temperature still. If fever comes back again, i give syrup den stick pad (E same cycle again). The fever for my baby always last for 2days. After 2days, will recover liao. Dun worry abt e fever. Juz monitor closely can liao. At nite, juz stick e pad & monitor every 3-4hrs. Oh! Also, wear loose clothings during e day. Wear lesser. Dun think tat baby is hving fever so he muz be feeling cold, den u make him wear many layer/covered up. It will make e temperature go up higher! Make sure e room is cool & not cold!
