Hi there! Hmm.. I guess it depends on the severity of your baby’s condition. My boy had really bad covid when he’s 2.5months. To the point of fever (39.5c) and diarrhoea. I was worried it’ll lead to dehydration and other issues since babies tend to feed less when unwell, so we headed to the emergency straight and got hospitalised for 3 days. Always follow your mummy instincts I guess, and it’s never a bad thing to be “too worried” when it comes to your baby in my opinion 😌

My 8 month old just turned c+ We took her to a PD on the second day cause her fever come and go, and then later on she has blocked nose. Sigh. With medication, she’s gradually getting better. So I guess it depends on your baby’s condition.

I didn’t bring mine to GP when she had covid. For fever I gave paracetamol once and spammed fever patches. Fever lasted for a few hours. Stayed positive for 2 weeks with no other symptoms.
