Fever is a common illness among babies. When a child has a fever, mothers always stay up all night to watch over the child to prevent the condition from worsening. But in fact, when the baby has a fever, mothers need to monitor the baby's temperature at all times. When the baby's temperature is not very high, mothers don't need to watch all night long. Can babies sleep with high fever?
1. The baby can sleep with a high fever. When a baby has a fever and the temperature is not very high, they can sleep. But this temperature also has limitations, it must be below 39 degrees Celsius. At this time, the baby's body temperature is relatively moderate with only a slight low-grade fever, and mothers can achieve the effect of reducing fever through physical cooling, applying antipyretic patches, and other methods. This step can be completed without waking up the baby, so when the baby has a fever, the mother must first monitor the baby's temperature.
2. Babies with a fever above 39 degrees cannot sleep. If the temperature of the baby's body exceeds 39 degrees, it is considered high fever. At this time, mothers should wake up the baby and give him medication in a timely manner for treatment. If the baby's temperature still cannot be lowered after taking medication, mothers should take the baby to the hospital for treatment in a timely manner. High fever above 39 degrees is very dangerous, and mothers must not be careless.
