Question
Over the past few days, my baby seems to be off. I’ve noticed his mood isn’t quite right, which has me worrying if it’s affecting his work and physical health. He also mentions having trouble sleeping at night and occasionally feeling palpitations, which adds to my concern. If these symptoms worsen, I’m worried they could have a greater impact on his body. What is a baby’s normal body temperature?
Answer
Based on the described symptoms, it may be necessary to consider that the baby’s immune system is weakened, leading to viral invasion of the body and subsequent symptoms of a cold. In this case, it is recommended to take antiviral treatment measures, such as administering children’s amoxicillin granules, ribavirin, and ensuring they drink plenty of water to promote recovery. At the same time, a baby’s normal armpit temperature should be around 36.5-37.2 degrees Celsius. Every baby’s body temperature is different, so not all babies will reach 37.2 degrees Celsius, and there may be fluctuations of 0.5-1 degrees Celsius between morning and evening temperatures.
