How old is your baby? As long as the child is drinking well, active and playing I would hold it till tomorrow morning. Continue to monitor through the night. Fever will usually spike up at night. Aside to fever has she any other symptoms? Do sponge her regularly. If you bring to ane they will also do the same thing. Ask you to sponge and give para or nurofen and monitor.
