anything above 98.5 is considered as a fever. |

I agree. although kids can have different body temps, 98.5 or 37.5C is considered as fever. |

|
i consider fever as anything above 98.5F too. |

when their temp is at 37.5C then i give them paracetamol. they usually feel quite warm when they are at this temp and it is important to monitor. |

|
yes i would consider it a fever and IMO it is quite high for infants. |
||
|

|
if it is higher than her normal temperature then it is a fever. not all infants have the same normal body temp. |

99.0F is quite high for fever in infants. you should get your baby checked if this is her temp. |
