How Do You Lower An Infants Temperature?
Most parents will experience more than one night of fear due to their baby having a high fever. Taking steps to lower an infant’s temperature is necessary and important because his not yet developed body does not have the strength to fight it without help. If the fever is a result of an infection or illness, the fever will not completely go away until the infection is gone, but keeping the baby’s temperature as low as possible will help keep him comfortable and will eliminate more dangers along the way. Remove any warm clothing or blankets from your baby. If she is swaddled, remove the swaddling clothes or receiving blankets. Lower the temperature in your baby’s room. Lower it only a few degrees as you do not want your baby to get cold. You should not feel cold when you enter the room. Nurse your baby. Keeping him hydrated is immensely important if he has a fever. Keep your baby calm if possible. The more comfortable she is, the faster her temperature will go down. Sponge your baby wit
