krist,
accd'g to my PD, if bb has fever due to teethg, it shld b fr 37.6 to 37.9 deg..any higher is not teethg fever already.. just last mth, my bb's fever was v high too..38 deg..i kept thinkg it was due to teethg..hence delayed in bringin her to e PD..thot her fever wld subside if i gave her e usual paracet..after a day or so of takg med, fever din go down..n when i brot her to e PD, he said tt she caught e bug.. ya, n i hate feedg them med..IT'S E WORST! i normally feed her just b4 her milk la..n i will point e syringe at e side of her mouth..avoidg as much contact as i can with her tongue..n i do mix e med wif water too...cz sometimes e med is really tooooo sweet n thick. oh, it helps to hv someone distract e bb with toys or sounds or watever while feedg..
