Hello. 1. Observe mo si baby and take note all the symptoms na nakita mo sakaniya, fever, colds etc. 2. Make sure na may thermometer ka. Some Pedias consider 37.6 as fever na, while ang iba 37.8. Nevertheless once nasa 37.0 si baby monitor closely, since 37.0 is mainit-init na. 3. Wag mag self medicate or mag DIY sa pag gamot sa baby, esp herbal. There's nothing wrong with herbal but it's risky to self medicate, baka ikapahamak pa ni baby. 4. Always make it a must, na ipa-check-up si baby agad kapag may FEVER. It's better maging magastos sa pagpapacheck-up kesa makagastos ng malaki kapag lumala at na-admit ang baby sa hospital. Okay lang magka-sipon or ubo ang baby from time to time, normal sa babies or kids below 4-5 years old ang pagigisng sakitin, Pero Fever is an indication na may nilalabanang infection/virus ang katawan kaya dapat talaga ipa-check-up kaagad. 5. Find a Pedia na meticulous. Kung nakukulangan ka sa Pedia mo hanap ka ng iba, ako naka apat na akong Pedia sa anak ko 😅 mag 3 y/o pa lang siya. Around 500 ang consultation fee ng Pedia

Welcome po. As far as I know, bababa po talaga kapag may sakit, kaya need ipa-admit to help the body cope and recover, and once recovered na gradually back to normal na rin.

thank you ms. sarah
