Waking up this morning she has 99.9 temperature. My baby love to laughs oftentimes. But this early morning 4am, her temperature already around 100,, I worried coz she laughed while on her stomach face down, did few kicks. Just few seconds. She’s a happy child, but I might just be so paranoid. I hope that kind of action isn’t sign of seizure.Need your advice

Yes! The height of the fever is not so much the worry but more so how the child looks overall. So even with a 105 fever, you can medicate at home and as long as they perk up and act well when the fever comes down and have no other concerning symptoms you can skip the er visit!
