I had a dcg who spiked a 101 temp here. Her mom called the pediatrician and was able to get an appointment within the hour. When she got to the doctor, dcg's temp was 99. Both dcm and I felt a little silly for jumping the gun. Within a couple of hours, though, dcg's temp was right back up to 102. It went up and down for the next couple of days. Each time dcm thought her dd was getting better, the temp would spike back up. Stick by your policy. Dcb's temp may be right back up by dinner time!
