Regular temperature taking, medicine (paracetamol round the clock), note down symptoms and signs. Dress baby in cool, comfortable clothing, use the fan instead of air con. Monitor baby’s feeding and activity level, as well as whether there is lethargy. If fever is persistent, bring baby to see the doctor. If there are worrying signs, go to A&E. In this climate of COVID-19/dengue, I would have a much lower threshold to bring baby to seek medical attention. And after that, if baby still doesn’t recover after a few days, I would bring baby to the doctor again.
