Question
What is the normal temperature range for premature babies?
Answer
The normal temperature range for premature babies typically falls between 36.3 to 37.2℃. It’s normal for a baby’s temperature to fluctuate slightly throughout the day and night, but it should be closely monitored. If the temperature exceeds 37.5℃ or drops below 36℃, or if there are other discomfort symptoms, it is advisable to consult a doctor promptly. The baby’s feeding situation should also be observed, as a decrease in milk intake may be due to other reasons such as jaundice, infection, etc., and medical advice should be sought immediately.
