When mothers are taking care of their babies and notice that their bodies are warm, they need to check their baby's temperature. Usually, mothers choose to check their armpit temperature because it can better reflect their body temperature. So, is it normal for a baby's armpit temperature to be 37.2?
A baby's armpit temperature of 37.2 degrees Celsius is a normal body temperature, and a baby's temperature between 36 degrees Celsius and 37.4 degrees Celsius is also normal. However, there may be some external factors that can cause changes in body temperature, such as diseases and weather. Parents should pay attention to observing if their baby has any other abnormalities and monitor their body temperature.
For younger babies, abnormal body temperature can also occur due to weather conditions, so parents still need to pay extra attention as it may cause fever or cold. Therefore, parents can measure the baby's body temperature regularly and seek medical treatment promptly if any abnormalities occur.
Sometimes, when a baby wears too much or covers too thickly, intense exercise, or is mentally tense, their body temperature may rise slightly. However, the fluctuation in body temperature is not significant, and their overall condition is good, especially their mental state, which is not abnormal. It may just be a physiological phenomenon, not a disease, and parents need to learn to observe.
Parents should pay attention to monitoring their baby's body temperature to see if there are any other discomforts, such as coughing, nasal congestion, etc. They should also keep warm and avoid catching a cold. As long as the body temperature is below 37.4 degrees, it is normal, but it is important to observe the condition of the body more.
