Question
What is the normal body temperature for children?
Answer
A baby’s normal temperature range can vary depending on the method of measurement and environmental factors. For instance, a baby’s temperature may temporarily rise after eating, crying, or exercising; it may also increase if the baby is dressed too warmly or if the room temperature is too high. However, as long as the baby is in good general condition, appears lively, and shows no other symptoms or signs, such temporary and slight fluctuations in body temperature are generally not considered pathological.
