Is 100.6 a fever in kids?
My son, he's 4, is feeling quite warm. We measured his temperature and it's 100.6. Is 100.6 a fever in kids, or should I wait to see if it goes up?

Yeah, 100.6 is a fever for kids. My little cousin gets it sometimes. My aunt usually gives him medicine and keeps him hydrated. Best to check with a pediatrician, though.

My son just had 100.6 last week! The doctor said it's a fever, gave paracetamol, and advised lots of fluids. It went down quickly. Don't worry, just follow pediatrician's advice.

Oh, 100.6 for a kid, that would make me so worried! Yes, it's definitely a fever. Does anyone else feel super anxious when their child has a fever?
