  • dress her down to her vest and give her a cool drink of water, make sure it has been boiled and then cooled. also make sure there are no drafts or windows open when shes dressed in her vest, it might sound like it wud help to cool her but it will give her a chill. Also a damp flannel on her head may help but not too cold, if nothing works calpol can help take their temps dwn. good luck x

  • Anything between 36.1 and 36.9 is considered fine. Calpol really help reduce a fever. It worked wonders for my little boy after his injections xx

  • Riley went up to 30' after having the last of his jabs. I got really worried and rang the emergency number in my book thing you get from the doctors. They said just to keep and eye on him and to ring if he got any worse. I stripped him down to his vest gave him some calpol and a bottle and he went to sleep and his temperature had come down again when he woke up.
