Body temperature

My LO is 10months old now. What temperature is consider as fever? Is 37.5 already consider as mild fever?

When you suspect that your baby has a fever, take your baby's temperature with a thermometer. A rectal temperature of more than 100.4°F (38°C) is considered a fever. In most cases, a fever is a sign that your baby's body is fighting an infection

My family doc always say more than 37.5 is considered fever in infant.
