Question

What is the normal temperature range for a newborn under one month old?

Answer

The normal temperature for a newborn should be maintained between 36 to 37 degrees Celsius. This range not only minimizes oxygen consumption but also aids in the baby’s normal metabolism. If you notice that the baby’s temperature is too high, it is recommended to provide the doctor with details such as the date, time, temperature changes, frequency, duration, and related symptoms of the fever during the consultation, as this information can help the doctor make predictions and assessments about the condition.
